How successful do you think it would be to try a single (random) guess on every possible account?
And if you're claiming they're using the email pass that they mysteriously already have, that's not brute forcing.
its not that complicated , I take a 100 million user/pw combo list, fire it at hotmail I got roughly 33 million accounts (out of them I have full access to roughly 22million ) from those its easy to assume some of them play mmos, I try hitting every mmo site I'm interested in/accs are worth anything on , I get roughly out of that 22 million a few thousand mmo accounts.
this isn't rocket science. besides that, this is just one method, I can theoreticaly get someones info via skype,messenger,facebook with a few cmd tools and Cain&Abel, other method is using google "hack" to get .pwds decrypt them and get login info that way. nexon.net maybe be relatively secure but things attached to it and related to it (forums) arn't.
I work at an ISP I know this stuff to keep myself safe.
at the end of the day, the more amiguous you are online the less common users/pw you have,using diff ones for everything, etc make you more secure.
its relatively easy to get someones email if they use facebook, if they use facebook they usualy check their email , getting the pw from an email that's being acessed isn't very hard, now assuming they play ms adventures its prolly the same email they used for GMS to make their FB account, now you have their facebook,email and nexon account.
