Why You Should Wipe Your Hard Drive If You Sell A PC!

Poor old Amir! Amir tried to get one-up on a canny eBay punter by selling a broken laptop for £375 and then refusing to give a refund.

Unfortunately, he forgot to wipe the Hard Drive which contained lots of pictures (gay, fetish, London bombing, 9/11, Amir topless) as well as bank account details, passport and driving license scans.

Well the unlucky buyer has got his own back by posting all of Amir’s embarrassing details, including some of the 90 pictures Amir took of ladies legs on the tube with his cameraphone (it seems Amir is a bit of a legs man). I think poor old Amir is going to be the UK’s second web celebrity in as many weeks, after the now famous interview on the BBC, given that the site is getting lots of hits and lot of people are offering help to list the embarrassing stuff elsewhere (usenet, in gay groups for instance) or try to convince Amir (who seems to be posting with fake nicks) to give back the money!

Thanks to Martin for the lead.
