Strange thing going on with cccam 2.2x

Guy's I found this today and thought you all should read it:

This is what he posted:

I've been testing his claims. Using OSCAM 0.99.4svn build #2859 (on pc) and using it to steal my local cccam card (vu+) and sharing it via cccam to my tm9100.

LOCAL cccam---->stolen---->OSCAM---->fake local----->cccam

When Local cccam was version 2.2.1 this line appeared in oscam (debug 256)

2011/02/15 0:09:52 956 p03 cccam(r) cccam: au info: caid 0963 card system: 6 serial: 0000000000XXXXXX
2011/02/15 0:09:52 956 p03 select: socket is set
2011/02/15 0:09:52 956 p03 cccam: decrypted header:

XXXXXX is my card number. Taken from CCcam info pages Entitlement info

card reader /dev/sci0
handled YYYY(YYYY) ecms and Y(Y) emms
Nds card XXXXXX

With exactly the same cccam.config but this time LOCAL CCcam version 2.1.3

2011/02/15 0:22:14 956 p03 cccam(r) cccam: au info: caid 0963 card system: 6 serial: 0000000000000000
2011/02/15 0:22:14 956 p03 select: socket is set
2011/02/15 0:22:14 956 p03 cccam: decrypted header:

This time no Card Serial.

The config is the same only change is the cccam version.


this is the reason why sky is terminating contracts..... anyone else been terminated here...?

I would remove anyone using cccam 2.2.x from your servers ..........................

So I contacted the poster of the above and he sent me this letter he received from Sly:

Full ViewCancellation of Sky Subscription Account
From: antipiracy <antipiracy@bskyb.com>Add to Contacts

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Customer

This email is an automated response

We write to inform you that we have recently been forced to cancel your Sky agreement and services.

The reason for this is that we have reason to believe that your account and viewing card have been used unlawfully and in breach of the terms and conditions of your Sky digital subscription contract, specifically in a way that permits the illegal sharing of Sky content. In addition to being a breach of contract, [your] use of Sky equipment in this manner is fraudulent and a criminal offence.

The unlawful use in question entitles us to terminate our agreement with you without notice, which we have done. Any outstanding payments due to Sky under the terms of your digital subscription contract will be taken or raised in the usual way.

We require you to return the viewing card, which is Sky's property, to us using the enclosed stamped addressed envelope.

If you believe that an error has been made or if you have any questions in relation to this, please write to the following address, clearly stating your reasons. Please note that we will be unable to consider any claim of error unless your viewing card is returned to us.

I have as of 30 minutes ago CHANGED BACK TO cccam 2.1.3 - I would advise you to do the same for your own good.

Quote from Ten Below

I think we have seen simillar to this with every version of cccam ( certainly since ive been into this hobby, remember the last one "backdoor in 2.1.4" )

I have read the threads on the other boards as i did last time when people were saying nds investigators were posting cards through peoples doors.

If people are been busted for cs then i there are many possible reasons, im sure youve read the same. These are the 3 i believe most likley annd another option.

1. They were sharing with a payserver who has been busted and their details have been recovered from the server.

2. There are a number of online boxkey generator sites, it is possible sly have set this up and people are entering their details without realising.

3. There are people active in cs forums, who are working for sly on c/s forums exchanging with people to get their ip/ details.

Or
Some people have nothing better to do.

Take everything you read about this with a pinch of salt, weve been before and will again im sure. I have also read of people getting cut off claiming to have never had anything to do with c/s. ( One joined here yesterday )
I know this is not true because have seen their posts on other boards over the years.
Far more likley they were sharing with a payserver and are now trying to cover their tracks.

Good points, however what I'm pointing to is the ease of seeing your card details via oscam..... also you comment:

1. They were sharing with a payserver who has been busted and their details have been recovered from the server.

reply: Very true and in some cases without even knowing they are sharing with a Pay Server...

2. There are a number of online boxkey generator sites, it is possible sly have set this up and people are entering their details without realising.

reply: Good point, however if Sly are doing this then in a court of law this is known as Entrapment. In criminal law, entrapment is constituted by a law enforcement agent inducing a person to commit an offense that the person would otherwise have been unlikely to commit.

3. There are people active in cs forums, who are working for sly on c/s forums exchanging with people to get their ip/ details.

reply: If Sly were doing this then they are also breaking the law: if the evidence leaves a reasonable doubt whether the person had any intent to commit the crime except for inducement or persuasion on the part of some Government officer or agent, then the person is not guilty.

Just my 2 "pence" worth.................

I will not be taking the chance that someone is using Oscam to rip mine or my peers locals. So have change back to 2.1.3 until proven otherwise.

Quote from Ten Below

Entrapment ........yes
Would they try it......yes, how many people would challenge it?

Agreed...................

Why 2.1.3?
The next version is perfectly stable and also stops people using the well known 256 trick.

Good point I always forget about 2.1.4 - I will download it now and update

thanks

Quote from ddaddy

One major flaw in your post Prioryman.
The 'letter' sent from sky is an email! Yet it says it encloses a stamped addressed envelope to return the card!
Letter or Email? It can't be both!

Sounds made up to me

ddaddy, I have no reason to disbelieve this person and have all day "surfed" the fourms and it would appear that there is some truth in it.

Many have received the "so-called" letter/email.

Perhaps as Ten Below stated "we have seen simillar to this with every version of cccam" and this will blow over, however I will not take the chance so changed to 2.1.4 until it "blows" over.

I'm not "scaremongering" - Just putting the details ( notice I did not state facts ) for others to read and make their mind up.

ddaddy, give the address a ping!! or better call the number below and ask them if it's real!!!!!!!!!
