That is what i am going to say most of Forum owners are interested to make good money not SCAM their members and they want much more money not that small amount after Hacking anybody account anyway hackers hacks most of account for making Black money and they make new idea's to hack every time and Phishing mail is one part of that.. i guess Paypal most of hacks Paypal only...

Yeah forum owners won't get anything big by hacking into members account because they are aiming for much higher profits than what we have in our account.

Forum owner provide full information when they start new site and provide necessary documents also their is no chance to they people scam Members for a such small amount we have in our account they want Big money that's why they start Forum after spending lot's of money...

If our paypal account is hacked by any forum-owner, is there any possibility to know who has hacked it? If yes, it would not be possible for that forum to run any more after that. There is another thing, is it possbile to hack one's paypal account without knowing his/her password?

Well hacker can't hack account without email id and Password so they create phising email send to peoples and ask for user name and password and most of times peoples give this information or some peoples create duplicate site same as paypal and give redirected website and peoples enter their user name password their so that's it.. so automatically your account hacked.......

Yes that's true forum owner interested to make more forums so they good return from it....

Only the new users can fall prey to those phising mails, paypal is repeatedly warning the people to not reply any mail or enquiry from anybody. . So it is totally the users' responsibility.

Yup that's right only newbie fall in Phishing mails because they don't have proper knowledge and don't check link many time and put their user name and password on site that's it they got hack from hackers..
So it is our responsibility to stay away from Hacker and from Phishing mails...

Well a hacker cannot get into your account untill he knows your username as well as password or unless he hacks into the paypal database itself. And paypal can find out who has hacked into their systems but I doubt that they will tell you who the hacker is. They will solve the matter internally.

Yes that's true Paypal can find those hackers easily they keep proper record of every transaction but i will guess they don't share all information with members and solve all problem internally only...

Yeah if they disclose such information then their reputation would be hampered.
