Yes, thats right. Pinoy Money Talk Forum or popularly known as PMT forum has just been hacked. Moderators and Administrators are given 24 hours to pay the hacker eGold before the posts are given to spammers or even worse, everything is going to be deleted.

This is the shocking email that I received today upon waking up and checking my emails. I thought its going to be update or contest the least but it sure is a shocking email. This is what was exactly written.

An april fools joke by james of Pinoy Money Talk? Maybe but unlikely. This would be very off the line. I am a member of the forum and as you might have realized, member information will be given to spammers and this will not be a good thing.

Internet security has come a long way from its earliest beginnings but we certainly cannot be sure about everything. No one will ever be 100% protected. This serves as a warning to each and everyone of us. Pinoy Money Talk’s Hacking incident is one that would surely boil up blogosphere and online philippine communities for sure.
