How to hack RFID-enabled Credit Cards for $8 (bbtv)
A number of credit card companies now issue credit cards with embedded rfids (radio frequency ID tags), with promises of enhanced security and speedy transactions. But on today’s episode of Boing Boing tv, hacker and inventor Pablos Holman shows Xeni how you can use about $8 worth of gear bought on ebay to read personal data from those credit cards — cardholder name, credit card number, and whatever else your bank embeds in this manner. Fears over data leaks from RFID-enabled cards aren’t new, and some argue they’re overblown — but this demo shows just how cheap and easy the “sniffing” can be. This episode is part of our ongoing series of interviews with some of the thinkers, hackers, and tinkerers at the O’Reilly Emerging Technology conference this year.

n 1876, a young girl named Jenn was walking down a river, an insane man killed her by stabbing? her in the back, raping her, and then hanging her in his closet. While he hanged her he said Bukakke Bukkake.
Now that you have read this message, she will find you and her dead body will haunt? your house for 5 years. Every night you go to sleep she will appear in your closet, hanging their with? her glowing red eyes.
