Warning, be careful

I mentioned being contacted via skype, also that I wasn't sure if the vb.org db had all that info within it - when I said:

I meant that vb.com was hacked more so than vb.org in my opinion, if ever at all due to how many vBulletin customers who have public info about them i.e. businessmen or similar are being contacted via skype and exploited, threatened, and harassed.

Force then replied with:

So I replied saying it was a guess (if you just said vb.org does not store it therefor it basically accesses the license info to verify if a customer is licensed and can participate on this site):

And here we are now:

So to sum it up, vBulletin.com database was either directly hacked OR whomever cloned the main DB to make a test server DB left all the pertinent info within said test DB which was not a good thing to do, in the case the test server was hacked which I mentioned prior in this thread remembering seeing someone from vb.com staff post regarding that being the case - case in point all that "pertinent" info is now the hackers and if it was hashed or protected in any way then its surely not now, myself, Zachery, Lionel and others have all been contacted via skype by them and had our passwords from vb.com at the time it was supposedly hacked shown to us via skype directly hence, not hashed/hidden anymore - Being contacted is not something you want to be bothered with or inconvenienced by in the least. I'm not trying to stir up a fuss about this however I just had to comment and let Lionel know they've done this to others because I've known him for quite a while and I just knew they tried some similar BS that they did with myself, Zachery, and a few others including Lionel now.
