As I saw on TV, newyork.com is one of these sites. They sent a poor man on a desperate wild goose chase in the false hopes that his son was alive, and it turned out that the hospital list he was on was false on the website. -----Original Message----- From: Roeland Meyer [mailto:rmeyer@mhsc.com] Sent: Thursday, September 13, 2001 2:35 PM To: NANOG (E-mail) Subject: Hacked news sites I just heard, on CBS, that some of the sites, listing WTC survivors, have been cracked and are giving out false information. CBS is announcing to not trust any web-site. Given the expertise and resources available here, could not some of y'all approach the owners of those sites and offer assitance, maybe even help track down the crackers? Perhaps an offer of secured hosting and operational assistance would be of help? -- R O E L A N D M J M E Y E R Managing Director Morgan Hill Software Company tel: +1 925 373 3954 cel: +1 925 352 3615 fax: +1 925 373 9781 http://www.mhsc.com
