Hackers are still around…

I found an article by David Airey, a designer who had his website hacked last December. Mr. Airey had his Gmail account hijacked, and the cracker transferred the domain name www.davidairey.co.uk without his consent.

The cracker asked then a ransom of 650$ to recover it.

Gmail Hacked

The technique used to hack the Gmail account is known as the Gmail E-mail Hijack Technique, but has been fixed by Google since then.

The Gmail account get Hijacked when a user goes to an evil website. A filter is setup in the Gmail account of the victim, which forwards all the emails to the email account of the hacker.
