Reports are coming in from PS3 fans that seem to indicate "serious issues" on the PlayStation Network. According to the victims, their accounts are getting hacked and charged obscene amounts of money. To be fair, however, it seems to be the victims' fault.
PS3 owner Dom Guerrera had the credit card charged $350 for PSN content that he didn't buy himself. The unauthorized abuse, however, seems to stem from Guerrera's own activity, since he was paying heed to chain emails and entering personal information on a "free" PlayStation Network code generator.
It should really go without saying, but please don't enter personal information and credit card details on sites you don't implicitly trust. We thought everybody knew this by now, but it's still obviously a lucrative venture for scammers otherwise it wouldn't keep happening. If you, for some absurd reason, may have been affected by this, make sure you wipe your details from PSN. You silly person.

Almost got me there.
Why would a generator ask you for credit card information? Let's all be smartz. There are no Microsoft Points, Playstation Network, Wii Points, or iTunes generators.
I can honestly say after two years of being a supervisor for tech support, I have lost all faith in 90% of humanity.

To be fair all you need is a PSN account name and password. The card is often already linked to the account and can be rinsed on the PSN!
Me and my buddies have our PSN logins on each others systems, so that we can share our downloaded games (up to 5 systems!) But now and then some punk kid will ask you in a message if you want to swap psn details and share each others games, I'm always like "fuck no, that shit is connected to my bank account!"
Some people however are too stupid, or too desperate for free stuff that they happily give away their bank connected PSN details.
Tits.
There's a song in there somewhere.
Look forward to working in your acquaintance.
Sincerely,
Farshya Ngyuen

Holy shit! How did I not know I could do this? You just made my day!
I have two other friends who come over and log on and we share games so it's good stuff indeed!
This guy is stupid for doing that and $350 isn't THAT bad for fraud now he just needs a slap in the face.
Man it's become a joke.
My heart doesn't exactly bleed for this guy.
