Messenger Tool to steal name? by lostbinary on 11-21-2004 at 04:08 PM

When I talked with someone on MSN Messenger... he used a tool or something so he sent a messeage to me that looked like I wrote it... you know, with my nick and my font color... it looked like I said it, but it was he who said it. He didn't change nick (I checked)....

Is there a tool that can do this?

With stuffplug NG you can use a ChatOnlyName (name will only show in convowindows not in contactslist) to copy/imitate your contacts name ;)

I believe Messenger Discovery also has a feature which would enable you to do this

I never stop helping out (aslong as my comp lets me, etc. etc.) :D

Basicly what you do is you set your ChatOnlyName to your contacts name and guess wich font he/she uses (shouldn't be to hard because it shows what the font will look like when you set it) :P


Edit: thanks for the positive rating, i appreciate it very much :D

hmm, someone showed me the same trick tonight but he wouldn't tell me what he used :-/

i don't think it's the chatonlyname function from stuffplug, the guessing of the police would be too slow and not accurate enough. but i've never heard of anything similar so..

any ideas? ^^

correct. though it's not perfect. i have this contact who tried to do that on me but it didn't work, so it ended up like "Contact says: i love ----------" rather than my name. but still, it works most of the time
