Well I receive a rather interesting mail today claiming someone have been trying to change my streamyx password. Here are the contain of it

I don't know what is this guy up to but then again he must be desperate to rip off peoples streamyx account detail. There are many way to get a hold people account and one of them is modem jacking. Where you access the modem and download its unencrypted config file, then opening up it with notepad to see the streamyx username and password. Well this is 1 of many other ways to do so, then again if you like to understand more on this kind of hacking I suggest you google up yourself for more information :)
