Neon Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Yeah selling another email without the users consent is illegal. Regardless if the terms of service of that database specifically said "can sell email". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicka Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I'm pretty sure its illegal as well. By signing up to someones site the owner is responsible for protecting peoples user names and passwords given to them. I highly doubt anyone in their right mind will sell you their users table.

rulerofzu Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 It is illegal without consent of the user when they signed up. This should have been deleted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucky3809 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Very unethical to even sell or buy!! Why would anyone consider doing such?! Besides trying to hack,or scam those vulnerable people in the database?? Makes you not very trustworthy if your doing this or considering it.... And eventually if it's the law stating it's illegal you get caught in the end, and can face felonies, and prison time, it's also called fraud when you tempt to use peoples info to benefit you... Do what any hard worker does, and work for your money and position, don't try to cheat your way in life, it never happens by cheating others!! Don't know where you are from, but here where I am we work hard to get where we are in life. That info your wanting from a backup database is not going to make you any richer, or get your game any popular then what it is now. Instead of looking for shortcuts, or wasting your time on them, you should direct your intentions on what YOU can do to improve your website, or game, and also realize it takes time and effort for success to fall in your lap!
