Tom puts up posts saying if you see bulletins posted under your name that you didn't post, to change your password. Hopefully people are smart enough to take the advice.

Changing the password is irrelevant, considering the password is retrieved via the malicious login page.

No it is irrelevant that "tom" puts up messages like this. People who lost their emails/password combinations in this even are never going to see anything disturbed in their myspace account, because the thieves are not the least bit interested in logging into myspace and putting up joke posts.
They are going to take this file, or have already, and they are going to run it through every juicy email+password type validation system they can find.
Paypal allows logins with just your email and password. Ebay as well. Most email accounts (yahoo mail, gmail).
Bank sites, usually not. Usually you also have to know a username and a password.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17246677 Thu, 09 Nov 2006 16:45:31 EDT Re: yep http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17246637 DiscardedVet :

Yep, See it happen all the time. All they have to do is change their passwords and there good to go.
Can you send 700,000 PMs when all you have is an email address for each? Would they read their email and believe you if you sent 700,000 emails?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17246481 Thu, 09 Nov 2006 16:12:59 EDT yep http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17246458 Cop : Yep, See it happen all the time.
