I am not vandalizing anything. Have you read that article? It is step by step on how to steal a customers private info. Maybe I should contact the FBI. Because you souldnt get away with posting that type of info!

[edit] SDC

They are doing it again! Please do something about this!.

It seems to me that you have acted in an uncivil manner on User talk:209.160.0.225. It is important to keep a cool head, despite any comments against you. Personal attacks and disruptive comments only escalate a situation; please keep calm and action can be taken against the other parties if necessary. Your involvement in attacking back can only satisfy trolls or anger contributors, and lead to general bad feeling. Please try to remain civil with your comments. Thanks!

Hi Fabricationary

I wasn't trying to be mean, but it seems to be the same person reposting harmful info. I am a Sprint customer and I don't want others knowing about some loophole in the system that could allow them to get my person info. The person posting this article is doing so to bash Sprint, but it is going to hurt us customers way more. Take action agains them. Block their IP. I am sorry if what I said sounded mean.

Thanks for your response. There are many editors who monitor pages here, so I'm sure that info would have gotten removed. However, please don't attack the user who posted it. You might be able to find an applicable user talk template to address these posts if this poster repeats his/her edits. Otherwise you could try bringing up the situation on the article's talk page.

Hi Fabricationary

I don't know how to do any of that. This is my third time coming here, so I don't know all that much on how to report this. I really don't want to alter anything, but I just can't allow someone to post something that can make it easier to hack a Sprint customers account. I wouldnt want any cell phone customers accounts being hacked. Please just keep an eye on this for me.

If, like SDC says on the article's talk page, the number has been taken down, it should no longer be an active way for folks to rip off Sprint customers like yourself. Thus, if there is no longer a way to harm you all, the information is now just past news and can be mentioned on the article. I'm willing to bet that hackers and spammers rely little on Wikipedia as compared to schoolchildren plagiarizing their assignments from Wikiarticles. In this case, I don't think you should keep reverting the page - please be aware of the three-revert rule policy that Wikipedia enforces. Just keep your discussion to Sprint's talk page, and take it easy on the exclamation points and capital letters when replying to others. I understand where you're coming from, but others might take offense. Fabricationary 23:53, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

It doesn't matter if that number has been shut off, that article still lists the ways to do it. So I am going to keep deleting it, because there is no need to post it. None of the other profiles list hackings and privacy issues. To me this seems more like someone who has a problems with Sprint and wants to point out anything they can to make them look bad. So until every profile has these topics, I am going keep deleting this forever.

Take some time to cool off, please. This behavior and attitude could lead to your account being temporarily blocked. I'm not warning you - I'm just saying that others might. Fabricationary 00:00, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

This place is crazy! Someone post hacker related info, so I delete it because I do not want to give fuel to those types of people. But I am the one getting into trouble. How is this info vaild? Would I be allowed to go post hacker related issues for Cing, T-Mo, VZW? How is that topic going to help out anyone?

[edit] Harassing messages

Do not leave any more hysterical messages for me on my talk page. SDC 01:35, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

It's your talk page, that is what it is for. Maybe if you read what I wrote you, then reply to it we could work this all out. I didnt say anything about you, all I am doing is wondering why you feel the need to post this article on Sprint but not on any other carrier or issue. 68.19.231.39 01:38, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
