Are They Accusing You of Being a Pirate?
Our friend Dave was asked to share a copy of a Nintendo Wii game he owns with someone on the wiihacks.com message forum. Dave wouldn't have thought much of it, except the person asking was a site "Junior Moderator." When Dave refused, he was banned from the site for "insulting a site moderator."
The site is operated by pirates themselves. What they offer is a violation of Nintendo Corp's intellectual property. They assist with the piracy of software using code words and innuendos while pretending to be against software piracy. Their members exchange copyright software in private. They ban new users seeking advise while the moderators exchange copyright material. We have received reports by too many visitors that they are been treated with disrespect from the moderators of wiihacks.com.

Have You Been Asked to Donate Money?
In another email we received someone wrote, I was asked to donate money to the site since the moderator told me I had already received enough free information to write a book. So I decided that they were kind to help me out and I donated to the site. Three weeks later I received a call from my bank. Someone overseas had been withdrawing money from my account. With the help of the authorities it was traced back to a wiihacks.com community member.
