How does this work? Does a spammer pay for an SI account? Do they hijack an account?

We've been talking on the SI v IHUB thread about hijacked old unused accounts. It seems that there are several people with an agenda to attack Jews who have bragged about having many accounts and an ability to access "secrets."

Someone suggested that it is fairly easy to hijack an unused name as people do not put much effort into making up passwords.

It's interesting and am wondering if SI Bob has reviewed this type of thing. Most seem to have happened prior to his taking over SI.
