Gemini09 Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 This guy I met from Myspace a while back, he keeps bugging me to go out with him. I do not have the best feeling about it, and maybe I should just go with my instincts on this one....probably will. I wanted your opinion on this one anyways. Months ago, he claimed he was single, and he also had not been on myspace in a while. In the headline of his profile it said he was engaged. I brought this up to him, and he claims it was hacked by some crazy girl he knows. It showed he had not logged in for quite some time, so in a way its possible he's not lying, but who knows. He makes out like he can't log in to his account to change the headline. He says this crazy girl he knew hacked it and changed it. WTF?! For a while after this, I didn't talk to him. Just the other day he appears on AOL again, and is saying he still wants to meet. I told him I just don't think I can trust him, especially after that myspace deal. I know what you are thinking. It does sound like a load of BS, but what do you think? I realize people hack other people's account, but come on, why of ALL things, would it say he was engaged? Anyhow, I don't think I will even bother with this one, but just thought I would get some opinions.
Thornton Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 A hacker would be more likely to post some dumb comment, something rude or otherwise amusing to their tiny minds. I fail to see the amusement value in changing someone's status to "engaged" and doing nothing else. If you can't log into your account because you've been hacked, it's very easy to reset your password and regain control of the account - it literally takes a minute. If I were you I wouldn't trust this guy as far as I could throw him - steer well clear.
Hkizzle Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Yes, crazy women hack my accounts ALL THE TIME! .............. Got to give him credit for originality, he comes in a close second to a dog ate my homework.......

He's claiming it wasn't just any old hacker. It was some psycho girl he knew. I think he said she maybe was stalking him. Still, why would she put I'm engaged since a particular date in the headline. I did notice recently no one is logged in to the account for a long time, BUT somehow the headline thing is gone. So, this may indicate it was a hacker. Maybe he is telling the truth, but come on, who could not have doubts about this.
New Again Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Mad shady. If this really happened all he has to do is "I forgot my password" and have whatever it was changed to sent to his email...and log in and fix it. Duh.
dreamergrl Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Well... you gotta give hackers their due. They can switch the email the account is associated with. Still... all he'd have to do is take a picture of himself holding a sign that has his name on it, and it would get reset to him. Regardless. Shady shady shady.
Author Gemini09 Posted August 21, 2009 Author Posted August 21, 2009 Yeah it is shady. I wouldn't doubt if he has been in a relationship or engaged this entire time I've known him. I just think its totally weird, but the reason I started thinking about it again, was he up and contacted me recently on AOL. I told him once again, I don't think I can trust him, and he of course claims he is single. Oh, well....its never going to happen. Total weirdness.

Shady shady shady. :laugh:Maybe this guy has a history of cheating...so his fiance hacked into his account, changed the contact email to her address so she could monitor all activity, and let all his MySpace girl friends know he was taken.

Or maybe it's his mom who wants to set him up with Aunt Essies husband's cousin's daughter, and doesn't want him to stray until they meet.
Author Gemini09 Posted August 21, 2009 Author Posted August 21, 2009 Seriously though, explain how one does not log in account, but the headline is changed?

EddieN Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 If he wasn't BS, would you really go out with him? A random guy on mySpace? This kind of reminds me of something a guy I kinda know once did. His girlfriend cheated on him with his friend and then broke up with him in a pretty cold way. To get revenge, he logged into her university account (he knew her password) and dropped all her classes. She didn't realize she was no longer registered for weeks and once she found out, she had to do a TON of work to get everything straightened out. While it's an immature thing for him to do, I couldn't help but laugh at it all. It's a really dick thing for him to do, but she was a huge bitch herself and deserved it. Anyway, so yeah, ex's will do crazy stuff to online accounts.
kizik Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 I'd want to go out with that torso, too. Seriously, what's up w/ people's avatars lately?

alphamale Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Anyhow, I don't think I will even bother with this one, but just thought I would get some opinions. i think you shouldn't even bother with meeting people online. try the old fashioned way, IRL.
