Rep Power: 107 | HOW FAR HAS 'VLADUZ' HACKED INTO EBAY? HOW FAR HAS 'VLADUZ' HACKED INTO EBAY? Posted: Friday, March 2 at 04:00 am CT by Bob Sullivan There is no disputing that a hacker who goes by the name Vladuz has at the very least become a public nuisance to eBay. But some observers think the hacks Vladuz has pulled off reveal a much deeper problem at the auction giant. Vladuz claims to have broken into eBay’s computers, imperiling the integrity of auction site’s entire system of buying and selling. And the hacker has provided some evidence, last week posting messages to eBay's Web site while posing as employees of the site. Vladuz demonstrated the hack by posting notes on the customer service bulletin board using the same bold pink background used by actual eBay employees. Vladuz, who is believed to be Romanian, taunted the company in one of the notes. In response to a post where eBay spokesman Hani Durzy said that Vladuz didn’t have access to eBay’s internal systems, the hacker wrote: “Durzy … lies all the time.” Later, responding to a complaint that Vladuz had been tardy with a reply, the hacker wrote “I was very busy. Being hunted by eBay doesn’t leave you much free time.” http://redtape.msnbc.com/2007/03/how...vla.html#posts |
