Hack Forums

I got scammed by a user on this web site. When I reported this to "admin" my account was closed.

Reply from admin, Jesse LaBrocca.
"I'm closing your HF account. I don't appreciate the accusation or the bull$#*! you're giving me.

$#*! off."

I'm more that willing to show payments made to show I was scammed by there upgraded sellers only to have my posts removed for violation lol I told the guy that flagged me he could remove my account as needed as they only scam I won't lose anything by being removed. I promise if you buy services from them you will be scammed…..

I got a DDOS (Internet shutdown) by the owner because he didn't agree with my post.

After that I got all my reputation removed, muted and banned.

This is a few years ago.

When i try to access the forum now I get banned for " Multi "

Sad, because I respect the people in the community, not the staff.

Owner doesn't know how to run a site, bans anyone because he can't take any form of criticism on his website. I don't recommend buying ranks or anything, it's a waste of money. Jesse (the owner) also cooperates with law enforcement. Will be a dead forum here in the future.

This website has a lot to offer in terms of computing fields. Members from cool to edgy can be found here which is nice for me. Scammers are everywhere but it can be avoided if you just follow the precaution set by the administrator and staff.

Overall, my forum experience here are great.

Early in the year I saw people banned by Omni just for not liking Trump. How do you have a politics forum if you are going to cry like a baby when people don't buy all your OAN propaganda? Get rid of the politics forum if you can't handle real debates.

Back in the day I would use hackforums to hire designers and coders. Now it's a gambling and political place with nothing of value.

Groups that were once prestigious become worthless by the minute. Soon there will be nobody left except the loony tunes owner who shows contempt for the very people who fuelled his ego trips. Good riddance to bad rubbish. The internet will be a better place without this website and the wacko behind it.

I have been dismayed at how Hackforums has descended into a wasteland. I told the owner, the place is fast becoming extinct. You need to treat people better, his response was to ban my account. I have paid over $450 in upgrade fees and donations, a further $700 on awards. I have personally given him a total of $1,150 and he banned me for caring about the place falling to pieces mainly because of his actions.

I would advise everybody not to waste another second there because you will regret it like I did. There is no loyalty or respect. This guy expects money for doing the bare minimum. He offers nothing to the place, just living off his old name when he was a somebody, the forum is pretty much empty.

I am sad but it's time to move on. I wish I did sooner tbh.

Hackforums.net is an illegal hacking forum. Here black hat hackers exchange viruses, computer program exploits and give codes to activate programs.

It is a crime to participate in the above. I do not support or endorse the forum and recommend against creating or malware.

I would give the site one star - but this community can also be useful to an extent. The forum gives me an insight into what hackers are doing, and how to prevent future viruses or malware from entering my computer when it's released.

Lastly, let's hope that ICE can seize the domain soon. Sites like this make creating viruses easy, and the site makes hacking look "cool" when it isn't.

The forum was very toxic. It is like the owner is trying to bleed every penny out of everybody crazy enough to stick around. Every other day somebody was exit scamming. From top to bottom the forum is a must avoid place. I was surprised at the rating here but having looked at dates it seems most of the positive reviews came on two exact dates meaning the owner encouraged members at the time to leave positive reviews probably in the hope of gaining favor of him.

Hope this helps people.

It doesn't take long to realise that the "business model" here is convincing wannabe hackers to pay BTC to upgrade to "l33t" membership so that they can access all forums.

Otherwise, forums have various "prestige" requirements that take far too long to achieve. For example, you need 5 prestige to post_replies_ in the C forum. You need 25(!) prestige to post replies in the science and philosophy forum. Note that I've used the forum for approximately 1 week, contributing significantly to the few forums I do have access to - and I still have... 0 prestige.

Despite all of these requirements, the quality of posts by most members is shockingly bad. There are people with prestige and tens of thousands of posts under their belt who post complete garbage in every topic. I've never before seen a tech site whose senior members and "experts" know so little about technology.

The staff are the usual arrogant types you'd expect from a site like this.

Basically, the site is a joke. :P

A once bustling community is now down to less than 50 active users a day, less than 1,000 posts per day, just the same few 40+ yr olds who hang around because they haven't moved on. Nothing new is going on. No new methods, no new schemes, no new ideas, just people stuck talking about 2014 over and over and over. It's really sad. The madman owner is still trying to extract money from anyone left even though that is almost impossible to do at this stage. Nobody wants useless awards under their name anymore & the few that do already have 1,000. Everybody is upgraded, there is nothing left to make money from. Why pay for stickes when there is no userbase buying anything any way?

Sad, sad, SAD!

I think the forum is not the problem, the problem is imply if you meet the wrong hacker or hacker group.
I have been with HL since 2018, I already hired a hacker about last 5 months for phone hack which turn off positive after 9 hours. I will strongly suggest making enough research on any hacker you decide to hire from that forum.
Besides, Barrysanchez@ (hackermail) com was the same hacker I have been using for hacks since the past few months and I have never had any complains.
FYI always make sure you stay anonymous when dealing with these hackers just to be a safe slate.

The admin "Omniscient" acts out of emotion and bans anyone who has a different opinion than his and regularly lashes out in fits of rage and "roasts" and bans his community members. To be honest, he has had a hard year, his site/main source of income in on a strong decline, he's trying to pump out update after update which aren't working. The site is a shambles and a shame to the real hacker community.

The hacking side of the forum is the LEAST active, this is more of a hangout for techies rather than a hacking forum.

A lot of uses on this site are young, inexperienced and immature and they make up a majority percentage of the community.

**Have a look at the images. He bans people for suggesting ideas and trying to help the site. This was a 7 year member which had all positive reputation and contributions.

I was an active member for 3 years, got scammed for $300. The scammer was allowed to continue scamming. I messaged the site owner "Omni" and asked why a guy who has scammed $2900 is not banned. He banned me and the scammer, closing our accounts. Instead of just banning the scammer he banned me for daring to ask a question? Truly a selfish terrible man and I'm ashamed I ever spent upgrade fees and gave him money. Avoid or leave. That forum is FINISHED

I donated so much to this site and was banned for no reason with no explanation. This has happened to many people. In the site convo I had criticized the owner for money laundering and word must have got back to him so he tried to crush dissent. Amazed this site hasn't been seized by the FBI

The admins of this site are extremely unprofessional, and will resort to name calling and insulting users they're upset with. There are many other forums, Discord communities and subreddits for people interested in infosec and general technology, and I'd highly consider those over this forum. It's a shame the staff conduct themselves in this manner, and I'm sorry to anyone else who has had to endure this type of treatment.

They try to act like a community for hackers but block software like proxies and VPNs. They ban if you say one wrong thing. I found this other forum (https://sinfulforums.net) like theirs that's a lot better and does similar things but allows VPNs and stuff. The staff are helpful too! Don't join HackForums unless you want malware on your PC.

This site admin or team scam i got 4 time scam on this site they every week submit new method people feel its buy user but not this team have already old many account by self on this site peoples feel they make money with that but when they try its fail make money or try report they block your account if you try make new account or report they block same account again this happen with me more then 6 times i already report to FBI this website so care ful with this site

Hello everyone! I am joing the group with all the other negative reviews of this forum. A few months ago I needed access to an Instagram account and I agreed to work through a contract on this forum. When I finalized the contract with the other party on the substantial amount of $900 my account was blocked the following day. The admins are not responding to my messages, my post was deleted, and I lost my $900. I suggest not to work with this forum because the administration makes money off of this racket.

I noticed my wife keeps sneaking out, and she is mostly on her device always, so i hired hackssolutio.com to help me check out what she does on her device and they succefully helped me out thanks to them

I spent some time on this hellhole and here is my review.

Full of degenerate gambling. Illegal gambling. Underage gambling.
The only active section is e-whoring which consists of grown men swapping packs of teenage girls naked & pretending to be them to scam other men.
Scams everywhere.

It is a really toxic community with terrible staff and a 50+ yr old owner who is stuck in his ways & makes a fool of himself on a regular basis.

I think the Governor of Nevada should really be looking into the owner for some of the activities he promotes on there.

Some more info. They can read all your private messages at anytime. The business model is set up where you have to pay the owner big money to ever get him to do the right thing. Where you get banned or account closed for anything so you sign up again... and then have to pay the owner again in upgrade fees. Thankfully it's dying quick and has dwindling members... nevertheless it's important people stop funding terrible people like the clown in charge of that forum.

I also feel anybody associated with the forum should look at themselves long and hard. Will there be consequences for all the illegal stuff the owner has profited from on there? Hopefully soon.

Don't come to these boards thinking you're going to get rich when that clearly isn't the case and never will be. The only people getting rich off this lame site are the people who advertise and put up for sale their dumb products that will never work on here for the average person. Oh you'll earn $5,000 mining just from a click of a button in one month! LMFAO NO CHANCE. This site is full of scammers. I have bought at least $500 or more in stuff from this site and have made nothing in return. Think about it, if all these supposed methods really worked then why would these people even be selling their methods to begin with? They sell them because they know they can get gullible idiots to buy into the crap they're trying to sell and they're getting away with it. The crypters on this site are a joke, they don't bypass WD or any antivirus around and are overpriced for garbage. Bot sellers take 100 years to deliver. Everybody acts like they know everything but really they're just a bunch of script kiddies that don't know jack $#*! about anything. Site is a total joke. Don't waste your time off this site or the methods presented here because they're all garbage and will only fill the pockets of the people selling it all. All the sellers promise you'll make money with the same scheme, I've got a bridge to sell you in Oklahoma. It's all full of crap. Don't waste your time or money on this non sense site full of arrogant wannabe programmers. It's trash.
