A wellknown bay area website hacked, 1 million worth of tickets for concerts and broadway shows have been stolen. Scott budman has the story. A way to protect your information in your online accounts. Scott . Reporter thats right, janelle, the website is stub hub owned by san jose ecommerce giant ebay. Russian hackers were able to access stub hub and break in using emails and accounts that were taken when they were able to get stub hub passwords. So they went in and bought tickets to yankee games, broadway shows, and Justin Timberlake concerts using the user accounts. They resold the tickets for a profit. Now seven people have been arrested. What the District Attorney called an International Cyber crime ring. The money has been paid back to stub hub users, and the bay area man who started the investigation told us he noticed suspicious activity while he was working at stub hub. Just a large number of customer accounts being touched and transactions occurring on them. As soon as that was detected, they would have we kicked off an investigation. Reporter its worth noting that hackers didnt break into stub hub, they were able to pose as stub hub users by stealing passwords. Which brings us to a big piece of advice from the cybersecurity industry. That is, its best to use different passwords for different websites. That way, if one website, lets say target, for example, is hacked, the hackers cant use your target password on another website, like stub hub. So little variety can be helpful when cyber shopping.

What happens now and do people have to give back the money . Reporter well, i dont know too many people who havent had a fantasy like this reallife situation. Were along the border of santa clara, where the armored car attracted a lot of attention once people realized they could get to some of the loot, and it was all caught on camera. One person told us he saw money fluttering through the air. If that wasnt enough to draw a crowd, the sight of a guard picking up the bills along the boulevard certainly did. The guys hands were too full. The wind was blowing it away. It looked like millions of dollars, you know what i mean . Some people outside looked like they were gathering money. And i kind of did a double take and i said, is this really happening . And i guess it did really happen. Reporter quite a few people gathered money.

Nbc bay areas Mark Matthews is outside air bnb headquarters with a summer rental gone wrong. Mark . Reporter janelle, air bnb is not making anyone available to talk to us in person. The company says it prefers online communications, which as youll see, plays into this story. This is the apartment house in palm springs where sfrang rehab therapist corey owns a 300 square foot place she hoped to rent out for the summer. Through air bnb she rented it for six weeks to a guy now refusing to leave, but also isnt paying to stay. Neighbors arent happy. It doesnt make me feel very good. Obviously the person that does own the unit is having trouble getting them evicted. Reporter a process server couldnt get in through the locked gate to serve an eviction notice. The tenant now a squatter, and under california law, because hes been there more than 30 days, the owner isnt legally permitted to shut off the utilities. Her only remedy is eviction. A person is not a trespasser. The person had permission to come in. And so if you were to say call the police, and ask the police to eject the person, the police would likely say, hey, its a civil matter. Reporter william says the apartment owner is likely in for a long battle. It could take six to eight weeks. And if it becomes contested, at least another month. Easily three months. Reporter in a statement air bnb said it will refund the total cost to the reservation and will offer unspecified Legal Assistance to the apartment owner.
