http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=18288 Says, a teen hacker "he had managed to become the new owner of eBay.de." can any one tell me what do they mean by this..did he actually changed ip address at DNS or its DNS Cache poisioning or something else??
According to german news-tickers that are reporting about that since last week, it was hacking by stupid accident. The boy was filling out online-forms for moving domains to another provider for amazon.de, ebay.de and other big websites. And to his big surprise the moving of ebay.de was confirmed and he became the new owner of this name. Who's fault this was is not known at the moment, but it was not a real attempt of hacking EBay.
