Now I'm fairly new to hacking, but does anyone else see this turning into a potential disaster? I don't know much, but isn't giving a hacker site access to your router a bad idea? Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Well, he came to me for some help which i gladly gave. After, we were conversing and I casually asked where he lived. Got the city, which a quick google search told me the zip code. We then started talking about pets, and, thus found out the name of his dog. Well, i had his zipcode and the name of his dog…

And for the record, I DID HAVE A DOG. It died last may but at the time i did, infact, have a dog named gilligan. i never actually lied to james, thus adding to the glory of the SE.

Again for the record, i didnt change the router password.

Also, because im such a nice guy, i gave him back all his accounts after i had my fun.
