who is at fault when it comes to hacking/ scamming?
many users believe that the victims of such offenses are 100% at fault. 100% means that the victim did everything to lose his/her stuff: they PMed the person their password, hell they sent the trades too! now we all know it doesn't work like that...
the victims are guilty of nothing except ignorance. gaia does have warnings about password scamming but the info is not terribly accessible especially to vulnerable newbies who have no idea how the site works.
the victims are not at fault here. giving away your password is not against the ToS, but impersonating gaia staff, scamming and hacking are.
