Hehe Now they're pissed off for not knowing how to keep a secret, secret. Bloody idiots. They published the document without making sure that the sensitive information were decently protected. Screw them.

hacking, LOL!!!!!!!!!
All they did was re-edit the pdf's that were freely available to the public removing the black overlays.
Nandisile Mokoena, do you understand that the f@#k up is yours, and not a criminal offence?

There's an argument to be made about the more exposure the better - they can always be merged at a later stage.bwana, pls merge them

Woot !!!!
Free advertizing
But it was obviously not MyBB. May or may not have been a user but hey. It's out there now for all to see. Big up to the person who downloaded the PDF from their website that they published and we where to slow to get our hands on.
Much appreciated

Well, I downloaded them, if the forum needs them for any spurious court case to show that they are unprotected.
Nandisile Mokoena was on radio 702 around lunchtime. I was just getting into my car and only caught the last comment from her before she signed off.
Something like, they used 3rd party software to 'hack' and decrypt the documents.
Hilarious.

Just shows how much the bloody idiots know, and then they wonder how this sensitive information came to be public knowledge. Easy they had it in their hands!
