Perv raided college girls' online accounts for nude snaps – by cracking their security questions

Re: Everytime I see "Mother's maiden name" on the list of security question...

I had a phone call with O2 the other day, I was asked to give an answer to a security question not too dissimilar to "mothers maiden name", for all of these I just use random letters and numbers stored in a password tool.

The women on the phone seemed genuinely impressed that I could remember all of those random numbers and letters..........

Also, all the calls are recorded so these "security questions" and all bollocks.
