Default Qantas IPs linked to cyber-raid on Virgin Blue

Stupid person to post such things from a work PC...

Virgin Blue has been going broke for almost every month of the eight years and five months it has been flying passengers, according to on-line rumour mongers, but this week saw one of them outed as using what is almost certainly a Qantas computer.


This was the "Virgin Blue is loosing $8 million a day and being forced to pay cash for fuel and other supplies" rumour.


A moderator at FrequentFlyer.com.au (NM aka Nelly Mobbs) found that the IP number used by anonymous forum user flying1977 to spread this rumour matched one used at Qantas.
