I have heard of people hacking into teen accounts and posting nasty messages to their bulletin boards.

I think it is necessary for everyone to change their passwords regularly.

Why would anyone want to buy someone else's bulletin? What benefits could they get from it anyway?

Anything to attract traffic in their site. Why can't they just do it legally like all the other business minded individuals do? There should be harsher punishments to violators to rid of such scams, once and for all.
