We have been hacked. Yesterday and today we lost over 21,000 forum topics and had important news deleted from Soccer Gaming and FIFA 2001 Online. I am sure you are all very dispointed to hear this news.

In all honesty, we are going to do whatever it takes to fully prosecute this hacker. We have already tracked his IP address and have been in contact with the police officers in the UK, Australia and USA. All of them have shown eagerness to help us catch the hacker and have him charged. We need your help to track down the hacker. We are offering a cash reward of $100 to anyone who can provide us with detailed information that helps us catch this criminal.

The hacker is not just effecting the people behind the Soccer Gaming website, he is effecting the entire FIFA community.

The FIFA community is one of the largest and strongest internet communities in the world. We need to stick together to help fight against hackers. Please be sure to post your support against the hacker here, and send any information you may have to matt@soccergaming.com.

Everyone at Soccer Gaming is working hard to catch the hacker and are very confident of doing so. We have a couple of suspects who's names and details have already been passed onto the police.

Believe me, this is not just some kind of threat to scare the hacker. We are VERY serious about this and will go to the full exstent to catch the hacker.

Thanks,
Matt Holme

I hope someone catches him (or her). My original login name was deleted too.

You have my support.

SCTW www.wishlist.gq.nu (http://www.wishlist.gq.nu)

Take a look at your mail Matt (and please sign down the number of posts we have)

He also hacked http://www.fifala.com and says something about YPO? :confused:

Someone sent me and email saying they control me. haha whatever.

i received an email from this ypo@soccergaming.com saying something like i control you...!!!

Me too...

If this is how the guy gets his kicks he is either...

1. A dumass 12 year old who is only better than other people in the field of hacking

or

2. Someone with the most boring life in the world that he has to hack a forum.

Wow, were're soooo impressed :rolleyes:

you have my support. Whoever this person is really must have nothing better to do, since it sounds really stupid to hack into a website like this one that runs relatively peacefully.

Matt,

Whoever did this is immature and deserves severe punishment. You have my support mate. Oh and by the way, if I happen to be the lucky winner of the $100 reward, I would like to donate it to Soccergaming.com to help out with the expenses of operating this great website =)

I just hope he get what he deserved!!

This guy must have a sad life.
He must be a newb to hack into forums.
All i can say is when he gets caught he will have alot of "friends" to play with in jail. :rolleyes: ;)

I got the e-mail too, I think every member has gotten it. It also comes with an attachment called application/octet-stream

Man, this is total gayness, where have all the topics gone??!

Now I am mad

and when Schmeichel01 gets mad . . .

... I run to a corner and cry

:D :D :D :D :D :D

More seroiusly

(I spelt wrong sorry)

what can the members do to help out?

I have been here for a while and I know a couple people that did not like the regulars here.

Matt, Lior or Jow yo need help just send me a message through my ICQ

Yeah I was there also when it was all happening. I put up a post with the title 'Has this joint been hacked again' and a minute later it had disappeared. I got the e-mail as well (the file extension of course I didn't open)

HACKED!!
I extend my full support towards the fifa community and i'll try to help in anyway i can...

Are you from Mellbourne?
Melbourne Rules

I think that guy is called YPO, I got an email, and I quote:
YPO controls the world
Beware . . .
YPO controls the world Beware . . .
he also must of opened an email account at soccegaming coz his email addy is/was ypo@soccergaming.com

Did anyone else receive this kind of email?

This is very disappointing!

This YPO guy is trying to destroy the whole FIFA scene! I think that he's someone who commonly posts in this forum.

Good luck catching him!!!

yeh...i received that e-mail too...

Well, i guess this has nothing todo with JJ, as he had said in his FIFACS.com
So, i guess this hacker must be someone hated in this Forum, and of cause with a high knowledge in computing too.

I thought SG's forums are quite high-tech n secure, now that it has happened again...gOsh`

anyway, hope we'll find the Hacker soon...

Obviously this guy (no gender reference, I just couldn't think of a word to use that I would type in an open forum) has decided that he doesn't want to play, so he's taking the ball home to spoil the game for everybody else.

Although it means most of the topics have been lost, we are resilient and will continue to post.

May his fingers drop off so he can't type or pleasure himself again. :p

I HOPE THIS GEEZER IS CAUGHT, SOME PEOPLES ARE JUST BORN SAD, THIS GUY OBVIOSLY HASNT GOT ANYTHIN BETTER TO DO. GGRRRRRRRRRR. I BET HE REGRETS WHTA HES DONE, NOW THATS HES GONNA GET CAUGHT, AND LOCKED UP.

how many do I have?

this guy is really good... if he can put his talent to work he could be a very good internet security officer... and earn some money with that... instead of hacking other pple forum...

I got the e-mail too.
Id like to help out in anyway I can, anything you want me to do let me know.
Mail me Nath@socced.com

I got the e-mail from Young Peeing Orifice
as well
it said something like
YPO controls you
YPO rules the world Beware
and i replied
eh go home and suck urself u little geek

nobody hacks my forum

ok

Yeh i got a email from YPO as well , hOPE YOU CATCH HIM MATE , THIS IS JUST UTERLY STUPID!!!!

i got a email of YPO LOPO saying beware
and i replied beware to him cause soccergaming will catch him


i would have thought that soccergaming would have had something to protect this


anyway i think he should beware now

what will happen to this person

i think it could also be someone in this forum


hhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

ssssssshhhhhhh!!!!!!!
soap dodging geek

If simonious is correct about it being a regular member of the forums, then that certainly narrows the field a lot. I personally can only remember 2 guys that everyone hated.

A young kid who took his name from Dwight "Yorkie" springs to mind right away.

Yeah thats what someone said, yorkie_19.
But mysteriously the post got deleted. :confused:

Alright mate....what a dumb $hit this hacker fagget is...... :mad: :mad: :mad:

I know who hacked my site last year while I was covering the E3 Expo.
I hope that he will be the same guy so that I can earn the $100
And my insults go to the hacker, very clever but you're doing nothing else that ruining our jobs.

I mean I don't like Matt. I like his site but Matt has acted very bad against me and has prosecuted all my sites. But (as Shawn Michaels said), I don't hate him neither (in fact soccer gaming makes the fifa scene much more competitive, and therefor the sites become much better. On other words, soccergaming does helps other sites and I' grateful for that).

All my support to you Matt, I have been in your same situation and its really horrible to see your own page hacked while you're traveling

the hacker must be someone who hates football...wait a minute...its someone who hates 'soccer'...must be a Yank who did it then....NFL sucks..its not even worthy of the word 'football' in its name!!!!..yeah how come i didnt get an email either..by the way who's that 'Yorkie' fella anyway..he's just shaming and embarassing the whole Caribbean..I hope it wasnt him who did it though!!!..good luck catching the criminal.

Don't be making fun of the Americans! :D

who was this WipeOh anyway!? :D

i got that e-mail to from ypo@soccergaming.com and it said:

YPO controls you
beware

:rolleyes:

You can come and try to control me you nut..

Leeds in unity

You have my full support.

I got the same email. Everyone probably did. I hope you fry the Bastard!!!!

Yeah, especially that 'pro-life' president who meanwhile conducts a 'I-can-kill-more-inmates-than-you' contest with his brother!

i was the one who posted the thread called the hacker is yorkie19 hahaahhaha


the thread was a joke because i thought he would have been the only one to have a reason to hack the site


i didn't actually think it was him at the time but it all points to him dont you think

Have you seen this answer to my earlier post. Just look at the signature!

Could it be????

Who knows??

:confused:

I think G.Bush would be winning that contest. :D

Hi Matt
I have also posted a message and link in my forum at sportgaming
Hopefully together we can catch this sad idiot. I will also put a notice in my next newsletter if it will help

Steven

I don't think that was very wise of you to post a joke like that, at that time.

Originally posted by erxidivist:

IS THAT THE HACKER???!!!
...damn the whole thing is very mysterious
:confused: :confused: :confused:

Unfortunately Joe, it isn't a joke- it's REALITY.

You've got my support. I didn't get any e-mail though.

I dont know who erxidivist is...but his profile in his signature it says "ypo." http://www.soccergaming.com/cgi-bin/ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=17&t=006676 also in this forum yorkie 19 started the topic and he is now unregistered. Erxidivist from Estonia seems to be the same person..yorkie 19. Acts like he is a different person and asked what did yorkie 19 do. Seems weird..if I am wrong I apologize just seems strange. Sorry. :mad:

Can I have $100 now? :D

Also if someone deletes my posts then it must be true, no?

I have another idea.
maybe there are two hackers yorkie and erxidivist..hmm maybe they call theirself YPO... :confused: :confused: :confused:

very very suspicious... :) :) :)

Hey, it was a joke, ok ? U think you are a good private-investigator ? I ain´t the hacker, u can check it how ever you can !
I put ypo on my signature, to make you nervice ok ? And, IF I would b a hacker, would I show up?

U are just such a dickhead... Blaiming me on such a thing, I am getting pissed here ! Problably the ypo is somewhere and laughing at you while you blaime innocent people :P

Maybe it was you El_Gallo, cause u are blaiming other peole ? U aretrying not to get caught yourself...

WE know it wasn't you,atleast i do i think it is a part of the trick to make the real hacker beleive that he's been forgotten and some innocent guy has been caught up

yorkie19 isn't the hacker I'm his friend. He doesn't know how to.
I don't know if he unregistered but he is no hacker.
He is INNOCENT

now i'm really mad... after looking at the number of post and topics in fifa2001 forum... 500++ it's like a brand new forum.. :mad:

Woh i left for a few weeks to catch up on my coursework and this happens......

If you didnt do anything then you have nothing to worry about and everything is gravy baby. However by a "joke" you put ypo in your signature then dont be surprised if people question you. Next time dont be so retarted and do a "joke" like that. What still doesnt make sense is why you put how many do I have in the topic of the hacker thing? That kind of behaviour is pretty retarted. As far as the biggest asshole thing..the hacker is the biggest asshole(if it's not you) the second biggest asshole is you for "joking" and putting ypo in your signature and acting so offensively is suspicicious. Just say hey man it wasnt me I played a retarted joke by putting ypo in my signature (which you have since changed) and I'm sorry. If you can handle the fire keep out of the signature and dont bring attention to yourself by signing ypo in your signature ASSWIPE!! :mad:

By the way if I win the $100 I would like to use that money and buy MAtt Holme lunch in LA in one of the Argentine restaurants here, since I live in Los Angeles and also meet with EA SPorts and ask them when is the Argentine league gonna be in the game?? Matt email me and I can give you my phone number so we can hang. :D

Yeah someone sent me an e-mail that "I control you" or something to that effect. It seemed very immature so I disregarded it. If his e-mail info may shed light onto who the suspect is I'd love to help.

Dear Matt,
I hope you guys manage to nail the bastard that has done this.

Good luck.

Well I just joined this forum yesterday so I didn't receive any letter from this guy (girl).

Well if I can help anyway don't be afraid to call.

Lets lock this person up!!!!
