We decided to look in these databases for Dino's, if he'd had his passwords leaked in some database, and that we could try them out on the Skype.

Yeah. This is where it gets good. Oh. So we had a look and there was one. There was, well, there was one password that had been leaked five or six times on different services. So that just indicates that he's using it on everything and maybe hasn't realized that it's compromised. So we took that password and we logged into his Skype. It worked first time. It was six characters.

It was really basic. We just logged straight in and we could see his chats and we could see him talking to some guy called Shane. And Shane was the owner of Xtrail. And they were talking with each other about trying to hack into accounts using these databases. So they were doing it themselves and trying to figure it out, as me and Spintire were also doing it between each other.

So one of the targets that Dino was trying to hack into while we were watching him was us, me and Spintire. So he was looking in these databases trying to find our info and we were watching him do it and watching him attempt to get into our accounts like live in real time.

Yeah, anything he could manage. Our Skype, our Dropboxes, SoundClouds, anything basically.

Yeah, exactly that. Literally just a real-time feed of watching him try to hack into us. No, I think more what it was was that he was paranoid and he was trying to see if we were sharing stuff behind the scenes and keeping things from him. Because everyone in this little trading game was backstabbing each other. It's just what was happening. Everyone was backstabbing each other.

Well, me and Spintai were just sat there like... wow, we're actually seeing this. They're actually trying to get into our stuff right now. This is strange. This is a lot to break down. But we were just sat there like, oh, well, good thing we have proper security on ourselves, otherwise we'd be screwed.

Yeah. Exactly.

Yeah. Exactly.

We are both in the wrong. Everyone in this story is in the wrong. There is no right here whatsoever. The only thing that is marginally right is contacting people to say that you're compromised. That's the only good thing.
