To Whom It May Concern,

My name is DJ and my web page is located at
http://www.angelfire.com/ky/LydianSociety/welcome.html. This weekend I left
for a trip to NY, and when I got back I decided to edit my homepage.
Except when I entered my password it did not work.  I am fairly sure I have
the right one but am not 100% certain.  I would have used the web based
password retrieving system form your site but I have changed my E-Mail
addresses as well, so the old ones are no longer available.  My new address
is XLydeX@hotmail.com . If you would please send me my account information
again so I can finally edit my page again, I would be greatful. Thank
you.

The Angelfire Hack!
==============

Enough with the legal shit! Let's get to the hack! Ok... You know this
lamer on the net and u want to get him back and he's got a page on
Angelfire! What do u do? You hack his page of course! For those of you who
don't know what Angelfire is it's a free web page service. The basic things
u will need to hack an Angelfire account are:


/\/\/\/\ STEP 1 /\/\/\/\

The full url of this dood's page. Like
http://www.angelfire.com/ca/lamer/index.html or what ever the url is...
Basically what the url says is his page is at angelfire.com in the State of
California in a directory called lamer. Index is just the name of the
specific page. It could be different, but it usually defaults to index.html
for their main page if they didn't change it.

/\/\/\/\ STEP 2 /\/\/\/\

I know what ur saying... How could i hack an account with just the url!!
Keep reading! On to step 2! Next up you need to find out this person's old
email addy. Usually it's on their front page. Write it down!

/\/\/\/\ STEP 3 /\/\/\/\

Now you've got their full url and their email address. Now you have to find
their name on their page. Usually they fill u in on what their real names
are so find it and write it down. This isn't necessary, but it makes the
letter a lot more genuine...

/\/\/\/\ STEP 4 /\/\/\/\

With all this information write a letter to Angelfire sayin how unhappy u
r! Angelfire's help mail is mail@angelfire.com. Make the letter sound like
a REAL scenario. That's the trick to this hack. A little social engineering
goes a long way in getting u what u want. Say something in your letter like
you went on vacation and forgot ur dam password! Say that you changed your
email address and your old addy is no longer available so the password
retrievable form won't work because it's sending to an unavailable address.
So you give them a new address to send the password to!! Check ur mail the
next day and wallah!!! INSTANT ACCESS!!!
