Hackers (if they're good enough) can acquire anything they want Scammers can acquire anything they want, but it requires more human manipulation

I was recently on a website and found a vulnerability that allowed me to enter a rating above the maximum of 10. I reported it to the webmaster, and he thanked me. No if I had abused that, I could have been a real nuisance, or a danger if I had found a bigger flaw. In my opinion, black-hat hackers and scammers are tied for the worst. Spammers are the second worst, and white/gray-hat hackers are the best.

I can seeeeeee youuuuuuu Posts: 1,699 Group: Members Member #6 Joined: Apr 3, 2010 Activity Level Active What version of GM do you use? 7 Pro	Scammers make you think you are getting something good. When you realize you have been scammed, few feelings are worse. It's amazing when you catch one out, though Hackers are just sods, but they can be stopped. And as Carterv says they aren't all bad... Spammers are just irritating. Not really a danger to anything, just a nuisance.
