Assassinator Wrote:Don't use easily hackable passwords.

That is, not something that can be brute forced (8 or more characters), and also not something that can be dictionary hacked (don't use real words, or just add some numbers or stuff in between).

that's what i said, but he said it was an acronym for 10 random words with a number every few letters :-/

BUT....my friend wrote to me today and I couldnt help but LOL at this!

James Wrote:Thanks for following through on that yesterday morning. Not sure how they ever got into my account, but the fudgeer left some interesting info there.

First thing I did after regaining entry was to change all the password recovery features - security questions, mobile number etc.  Well, guess who's Nigerian phone number is in the mobile Field?  +2347034389468 !!

I won't call it necessarily, but I might just for fun and ask for James if I can research anything about it that tells me it isn't a scam number.

hahhaaa...so...if you know of any good restraunt fax services to sign up for, there's a good phone number to use :P

And how does one NOT talk like an american...here are the examples
Quote:The hotel management has been kind to let have an access to a library to get  across to anybody to help me since my luggages was also taken away
last night
No one I have ever knows has used that in a sentence

Quote:I am full of panic now and the police only asked me to write a statement about the incident and directed me to the embassy,i have spoken to the embassy here but they are not responding to the matter effectively

again, too much 'proper' english to be my friend let alone an American LOL

anyhoo...haha to that fudgein nigerian!!  Im gonna look for some fax services now LOL
