PSN Users Reporting Hundreds of Dollars Stolen From Them - Polidicks

[QUOTE=joost1120;29489119]If you heard that, it's probably false, because you're an 11'er, MS won't do such things and because that's just plain illegal.[/QUOTE] I was going to write a responce to this but I just cba. [editline]28th April 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Rusty100;29490132]The whole point of a card being expired is that it doesn't work how can they take money off it?[/QUOTE] I'm sorry, what I meant was keep TRYING to charge it, and next time the person added a cc to the account to get gold again, got a bill of a couple hundred.

[QUOTE=itchyflakes;29496336]The PS3 was cracked because someone wanted it cracked. OtherOS was just a coincidence and as far as I know, people were taking shots at PS3 before anyone even mentioned OtherOS. No matter what, there will always be someone out there smarter and more skilled than the one's who implement the security. The console needs to be hacked to see how it interacts with the network. After the hackers know how they communicate with one another, it's probably easy to figure out the rest. PS3 was the last console to get hacked, therefore the network lasted the longest.[/QUOTE] I disagree it was just a coincidence. The people who put the effort like this do it purely for the control of their electronics and they wanted the features they paid for back. It's far too big of a coincidence that the update went out and then much more progress was made on the console than any time prior. Yeah, I misinterpreted it as a "it lasted so long, so it must be secure" type reply. My apologies.

they already had $300 stolen from them when they bought a ps3

[QUOTE=Tobba;29492771]Honestly, try doing it on Linux I like Linux alot, but compiling everything from source is dicks, you need to be a fucking rocket scientist to find out what the undocumented error you keep getting means My only experiace with it: "Okey im just gonna compile this with the included instructions, should be fine" *Runs make as instructions says* "Error 0x12345678" *One google search later* *No results* "Fuck this shit"[/QUOTE] You don't need to install anything to use iptables. As for installing things [code]yum install <package>[/code] [code]rpm-get <url>[/code]

[QUOTE=Sanius;29490288]You're kind of dumb. I used my old PS3 as a computer (Ubuntu) when OtherOS was still around.[/QUOTE] WHY!? I don't fucking get that, its not desktop tower, it was never meant to REPLACE a desktop. So, WHY WOULD YOU USE IT AS ONE!? This also makes two people who used the OtherOS function legitimately.

alright just figured out I used a credit card, not debit. alright.

[QUOTE=mobrockers2;29488758][b]I have heard of[/b] MS taking money for xbl off of expired cc's, so I don't know.[/QUOTE] "I heard" != it actually happened

[QUOTE=FlapadarV2;29508905]You don't need to install anything to use iptables.

My wireless adapter drivers didn't exist on package systems, I had to compile those from source myself.

[QUOTE=Generic.Monk;29496858]they already had $300 stolen from them when they bought a ps3[/QUOTE] i had 2 seconds taken away from me because i decided to read your post

I just remembered that the debit card from my bank that I used for PSN was a different one before a new bank took them over (I haven't touched my PS3 in forever). The information they have on me is practically fucking useless. Thanks Chase!

Stem cell research?

[QUOTE=Domo-Kun;29519970]Stem cell research?[/QUOTE] Unnoticed in the background.

Sony just dropped the ball Off of a fucking skyscraper Into a pit of lava

Wait so did anyone actually get their stuff stolen? Because on the other thread it says anyone saying such had happened to them they're lying.

Currently miss $245 out of my bank account, had to cancel account and get a new cc :frog:

[QUOTE=Explosions;29520047]Unnoticed in the background.[/QUOTE] No, it's a Penny Arcade joke, I asked the same thing.

it needs another slide in the center but i was too lazy. suck it up

It's sucking pretty hard on its own.

I expect if this doesn't get better, we'll be able to buy 5 PS3s for $100.

[QUOTE=Generic.Monk;29496858]they already had $300 stolen from them when they bought a ps3[/QUOTE] hurr durr because ps3 is shit for casual NOGAEMS XDXDXD so randum lolol 360 fo lyfe

I think my dads debit card is linked to my account :frown: fuck

According to Visa and Mastercard you are all liars. They apparently have had no reports of money being stolen yet.

[QUOTE=Marlamin;29525257]According to Visa and Mastercard you are all liars. They apparently have had no reports of money being stolen yet.[/QUOTE] They say they haven't seen any PSN related activity. That doesn't necessarily mean you haven't been robbed, it just means that you didn't receive any fraudulent charges from the PSN.

i feel bad for sony:(

[QUOTE=TheChantzGuy;29527982]i feel bad for sony:([/QUOTE] Fuck Sony. It's their fault for being retards and pissing off the beast.
