Just cause they don't have your Security Code doesn't mean ur save, brute forcing is a very useful way with that many cards at hand.


77 million accounts, not cards.


It's still not a small amount of cards at his disposal by any means. The odds are most definitely in his favor. If we assume even 10% of the 77M accounts have bought something from PSN, that's 7.7 MILLION CREDIT CARDS! There are A LOT of opportunities for things to go his way.

As I said earlier in the thread, stolen cc's are sold for something like $3-5/each in bulk. Assuming he has cvc's and can find a buyer he'll make a looot.

Luckily I never bought anything on PSN and now I definitely won't. Already changed my password on the more important stuff. The problem is I have no idea what my security question and answer was, and I really don't wanna change all of them everywhere.

So glad I don't have to change my CC number though, updating it on every online store I use would be a giant PITA. Hopefully I can get away with just one console (xbox) next generation.



Yep same, good thing I never bought anything oN PSN -.-

I am so glad I never bought anything over PSN. Holy hell, I don't know how Sony managed to fuck this one up as severely as they did. I'll definitely be pretty hesitant to give them any money in the future.

this pretty much explains why xbox is the far superior console.

PSN is a joke. hope all the xbox haters pay for their un-intelligent decision to buy the ps3.


Wow, that's an awful lot of hate over a personal decision made by strangers that doesn't effect you in the least. Don't ya think they'd have paid for their bad decision by, ya know, paying hundreds of dollars more for what you claim to be a worse product?

Maybe I'm missing something. If so, please enlighten me.

He's just angry that someone else doesn't like his console and doesn't realize what a god send Bill Gates is. BTW homie, unintelligent is one word, not hyphenated.

XBOX360=Crap
PS3=Crap
Same price Computer=Crap compared to most computers but still good enough to run sc2!!

So how can I go about making money off my ps3 right about now? Happy now that I had never bought anything off PSN. What a joke.

This...*waits for inevitable lawsuits to ensue* Luckily for me the card I used in the past on PSN was cancelled and haven't bought anything since.

console video games arent meant to be played online anyways so much as with a group of friends in your room :D

Agreed so much! I miss hanging around in a filthy room or someone's basement for hours chilling out and playing console games with friends, it's just not the same anymore... :/

At first I was skeptical against this, but after this, true or not, I've canceled my credit card for overseas transfers...

I can't believe they don't even have logs of it. Fail logging with their fail security.
