Update: Phishing scheme affecting some Hotmail customers - Windows Live
Yup i heard it on the radio 2 days ago. They said most accounts starting with a / ab had the highest risk of getting hacked (pretty obvious)Originally Posted by Kalais
yes because A and B posted but the rest not posted on the site
source:http://news.cnet.com/8301-17939_109-10367348-2.htmlUpdate October 6 at 11:25 a.m.: This was later discovered to be an industrywide problem that has affected users of Gmail and possibly other e-mail services as well. See more details here.
Thousands of Windows Live Hotmail passwords have been leaked online, Microsoft has confirmed. The news was first reported by Neowin.
According to Microsoft, it "learned that several thousand Windows Live Hotmail customers' credentials were exposed on a third-party site" at some point over the weekend. Neowin originally reported that the credentials were posted to a developer forum on Pastebin.com on October 1.
After learning of the breach, Microsoft "immediately requested that the credentials be removed and launched an investigation to determine the impact to customers," it wrote on its Windows Live blog.
The company was quick to point out that credentials were stolen through what was "likely a phishing scheme." The company said that it "was not a breach of internal Microsoft data." It's currently "working to help customers regain control of their accounts."
Microsoft did not immediately respond to CNET's request for comment.
Microsoft didn't say exactly how many accounts were affected, but Neowin reported that the original list displayed accounts with names starting with "A" and "B."
Twitter and other social networks are abuzz with people advising others to change their passwords. Microsoft wrote in the blog post that those who believe they were affected by the phishing scheme should immediately do just that.

Oh cmon, the news always makes it look bigger than it really is. Nobody hacked any MSN passwords, they leaked out because of the idiots who replied to emails ASKING for it.
Hackers dont suprise me anymore , they can do EVERYTHING
But feel free to dont believe OFFICIAL informations...
That was the official information, not the information gossip papers used as their headlines due to lack of official information, which is what your beliefs are based on.
You need to watch less movies, hacking hotmail to gain a single password is considered nuts by every IT security spokesman.
Moved to proper section.
Is that number confirmed?
hihihi
no its a made up number
23548932759843 - Google search
its no phishing scheme .... hotmail is just saying what needs to be said to be less liable .
think about it 10 k a-b accounts no phishing scheme is going to catch potentially 200k accounts
its very real and meep your fucking retarded hotmail is known to be the most unsecure email provider considering the majority of their employees have access to their database
