Hm, maybe it was mistake. Some of them was DEcrypted by hacker. If you know hashed password, within 5-20 hours you can decrypt it into unencrypted one.
This is complete BS.
md5 passwords, if used in a right way, take years to decrypt.
Of course a password like 12345 can be decrypted in matter of seconds using rainbow tablets, but if this is the case, then it's a slap in the face for your to allow such passwords
OK lets say this is true.. Let me understand this.
You received a message form a hacker claiming he has hacked site and got passwords. He has taken coins from a few accounts and asked you for 10 btw or you will loose rest.
HUMMM.. OK
Firstly why didn't the hacker just take everything and make more? Hackers who steal are not nice people that will just say,.. ok just give me a little and ill leave you rest.
SO think for a second.. He claims to have decrypted hashed passwords ( I DONT THINK SO )
Is it not more likely someone has created 10 + accounts.. Deposited coins to all accounts.. Empited all those accounts and then pretended to be a hacker and blackmail you for btw?
Why the hell haven't I thought of this? I could be rich.....
Oh yeah, because I'm not a slimy little prick.
