After the server white-wolf.com has been hacked admins have refused \"to thank\" us.
We suggest you to buy database white-wolf.com all for 10 $.
In base of 65000 accounts with mails, icq, msn, personal data of users.
Mail for details whtwlfx@yahoo.com

Such a class act, eh? At least they don't claim to have cracked the passwords.

Seems like a good idea to send a copy to either 'abuse' or 'spoof' at yahoo.

I've known about this. I have a friend who works at White Wolf, and he assures me that it shouldn't end up being a big issue. They've reset all the passwords for their userbase, and they're working with the FBI and yahoo to catch the people responsible.


And if you want a fun card game and want to support myself and some other friends of mine, they've got Pimp: The Backhanding available :)

The database for sale for a whopping $10? A legit thief trying to sell that kind of info would be asking for thousands of dollars anyway.

At least the Lawmeme hacker did it for the love of hacking.
