Just make sure not to accidentally give him your post code and / or your secret question answer or any personal information that may help him hack your accounts.

I don’t like how people like this get the label of "hacker".
A hacker is someone who finds and uses vulnerabilities in software in order to compromise it etc....among other complex actions.
This kind of person clearly relies on dumb idiots giving him or her the information they need to "hack" your msn/e mail accounts etc. I’d hardly call it “hacking” as there’s nothing complex about it…..

It's social engineering, it seems his job is being made very easy though.
Not even a script kiddie, he's going to your secret question, seeing it's your first cat, asking your first cat then getting the answer, that's praying on the stupid more than anything.

Of course he's dodgy, the solution is don't tell him your secret question.

social engineering is still hacking, despite it being very low tech and pathetic.
Havn't you heard of the great social-engineerist Kevin Mitnick?

I know what social engineering is yes, hackers of yore used it extensively.
I'd not credit asking somebody what school they went to as hacking though.
