The attack came through Modern Warfare 2, which is no surprise considering the amount of problems that are associated with it. Anyone who has played Infinity Ward's latest during the past year will be familiar with spam and other garbage of that nature, it's common knowledge. But when a youngster from Tallaght was bored and clearly not doing his homework, Microsoft issued an alert around the globe about some nasty phishing attempts.
Fortunately, sensitive information wasn't accessed and Modern Warfare 2 users were able to breathe a sigh of relief. It looks like Microsoft was impressed too, as they're now working with the teenager so his 'skills' can be used positively. Will Sony follow and reward the people responsible for the bringing the PlayStation Network to its knees? What do you think...
. or am i one of the only people who has come to that conclusion? ohhh wait a minute, just a couple of days ago xbox had some marketplace difficulties as well, darn! they are obviously victims as well, and they responded soo promptly in telling the public, unlike that awful sony. i guess that disproves my completely irrational theory then.........
