You signed up for a partner account, setup hosting somewhere, subscribed to a msg board, subscribed to a membership to view content, anything that requires you to create a password (which in most cases everyone has the same password for everything).. then either the owner of the site put two and two together and started trying your usernames and passwords at epass, or someone compromised there site and put two and two together.
So for all you people who say there?s no way you got "phished", or "gave anyone your information".. don't use the same fucking password that you use for everything else. All passwords should be different.. at least by 1 or 2 chars.

from the recent epassporte thread:
"This is bullshit, my account was hacked into back in mid 2006 the guy got $500. Then I changed my username and password opened a new account, with a username that I never use for anything, and a password that is random numbers and letters. I told them when I opened the new account that I specifically wanted all p2p transfers blocked. They set me up with a limited account and that was one of the limitations.
I am convinced this is an inside job, I get payments at all different times of the month, so what, somebody logs in every day, and just happens to log in right when I get paid? No f'ing way. Somebody on the inside would have had to unblock my p2p transfer limitation, and know when I got a big transfer loaded to my account, as I always pull my money out as soon as it gets there. This scumbag new about the funds before I did, and I initiated the payments to my account they day before"
Its definately security issues, because hackers (or insiders) are able to unblock p2p transfers. And it didnt happened for the first time.
Even Epassporte themselves doesnt reply in these threads full of allegations about their security issues.
