I joined this site to become more familiar with the security vulnerabilities of computers what I didn't know is that I would actually learn more from some of the users on this site. Hackforums.net is a pretty informative site to visit you can learn just about anything from how to secure your own personal computer to how to get even with an enemy. You can even find software and tutorials to help expand your knowledge of the security side of the internet. Plus it has a section for gamers who want to know how something works within a gaming system and any exploits that are found within that game or system. This site gets 4 stars for it's layout of information, ease of use, and it's informative nature.

After being there for so long you'd figure I'd be bored of it, however, it's quite the opposite. The site is constantly being updated and worked on, the community is indeed one of a kind, and the information you can glean is extensive.

Whether you're into cryptocurrency, selling a product, hacking, or just having good discussions this is the place to be. Highly recommend taking a shot and joining Hackforums.

Unlike these other reviews HackForums is PERFECT, they only hate because they were stupid enough to get scammed on this forum. Just play it safe and stay away from the marketplace if you don't know what you're doing. I've learned so much from HF and have accumulated a good sum of money from various different techniques and tutorials on this forum. I would recommend it to anyone looking to make some easy money.

What a terrible community
February 17, 2017

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.

Dude how unAmerican Omni is to ban people for having a different opinion from his own in a politics forum he created pretending it's for people to have discussions but they have to have the same opinions as the forum owner. Omni you come across as really emotionally unstable, Someone said you are an alkie so maybe you do it when you are drunk? Do you think people who have paid for uber are going to buy more awards from you when you are so rude to them for expressing opinions different from you own in a forum you created for expressing opinions. He gets especially nasty with people who don't think welfare recipients should have all their money taken away and then it's funny that he's calling his members pieces of $#*! for not wanting other people to be homeless etc... I guess he maybe has Narcisstic Personality Disorder like the hero he worships. He causes so much illwill on his own forum and he's been in trouble in the past for banning too many people so the forum went to pot.

If you are new, the first thing you should do is never visit this forum. Why? You will not learn anything there and you will be deceived there. Or they use and then deceive. Everyone who is objectionable, and everyone who has their own point of view, is simply kicked (banned). Remember this is their face.

The forum has long been transmitting your data at the request of the authorities, they even write about it at the beginning. They do not encrypt correspondence, nor passwords, absolutely nothing. Scan your blockchain wallets and other data. This is another step to have nothing with this forum.

If you need to change your grades at the university? Or access the database? Forget it, you will be in big trouble. Your information will be given to the services, and after a while you will be in jail. Why exactly? They face the choice of either freedom or prison. If you choose freedom, then pass on the data, period. And in such a vile forum, no one will hack, good people will not risk their privacy for the sake of this forum.

If you are offered to work through this forum, do not do it, these people sold their mother a long time ago, and they will sell you too. They have no brains, they have no human form.

Elementarily, they can't even hide their tails on their forum. What there can be serious people. Kindergarten no more.

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 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.

HackForums isn't what you would expect. When you hear the word "hack forums" you immediately think of a forum with a bunch of black hats and carders and what not, but this couldn't be farther from the truth. While it's true that HF does allow discussion on electronics, technology, and the like, as one would expect; It's more geared toward marketing and learning, with a secondary additive of gaming.

The community is an acquired taste, but the staff is top notch and the admins aren't the run of the mill children you'd come to expect from other forums with like names. Give it a chance before making any judgements.

I spent at least $500 dollars on services from this website. Each time I was disappointed with the level of communication, and service that was provided by individual sellers.

Come to find out that HackForumz.com is actually a lot more trustworthy with my money than HackForums.Net.

I've emailed the Admin at HF and Jesse Labrocca aka Omniscient told me that he cannot refund me because the services provided was third-party. His staff team don't impliment safe selling practices at all on this site, and it's filled with skids.

I'm glad I switched over to HFZ (Hackforumz.com) because the seem to provide better selling practices, and enforce this on third-party sellers. I bought services from the Administrator there and services were not setup (My premium Account), he apologized, and immediately refunded me as promised. He even told me once services are 100% setup he would provide my premium account for free for the incoveinece.

Stay away from HF. Too many trolls. If you're looking for transparency and freedom. HFZ is the way to go!
