hi everyone, extremely new to this site and exploits, not new to IT.
however, i have always used IT for fun and work, never to mess with somebody.
well i am a member of a forum and one of the senior members on there has displayed a habit of 'outing' new users on there, as a way of hazing; posting their full name, pics of them gleaned from social networking sites or google caches. i started getting annoyed with it and spoke up. i thought they were exploiting the naive nature of the new users by using their publicly displayed email address to find the pics and info. but, my email address is hidden (supposedly). so when i spoke up about it, i did so rather aggressively. well...the guy decided to go after me. he didnt come up with a name or anything else that i know of, but he did come back with a picture of me. even though for the most part, its harmless, i feel like i have been raped lol. i mainly want to know how he did it. my username is generic, 6 characters. the forum is smf 1.1.8. the user that did it is not a moderator or admin. i didnt fill out any of the profile or any info whatsoever, and have been a member for almost two years. the only thing i can think of is somehow he got my ip, or hacked into admin rights and got my email address.
any ideas or help would be extremely appreciated. |

Well unless he got your email address somehow, I guess he could have found your picture by searching your username and maybe you posted the picture at another website under that name? |
