What is that 919-post thread supposed to tell us? And how would Captcha have prevented whatever happened? And most of all, how many people did it affect? I only see a very short list in the Wiki.
If it is a brute-force attack, prevention against that is common amongst many websites that do not need such things as Captcha.

The idiocy continues. Try to sign in Captcha gave me easy to read 3 numbers. Then said I typed wrong number. I might be old but I am not Blind. Then it gave me 4 numbers easy to read and again it told me wrong. Then I typed in the same numbers and it accepted it.
Where is the Hilton Rep on this board to tell what Hilton is doing about the hacking, the stolen points (258,000) not yet returned and this useless Captcha.
How can this be a mult billion dollar company . Some people are going to get a rude awakening when they try to sign in and can't and all their points are gone.
Does Hilton Care?? , I guess they don't!!!

I had another revelation how STUPID this is.
I am at the Conrad in INDY, how does an HHonors customer gain access to the internet? Well, you give your account number and pin over an unsecured network.
Brilliant, just brilliant!

The Saga continues with this Idiot Corporation.
To day I logged into my new account # and selected My Reservations.
Clicked on one to change (actually add mores date for this Moron Corporation)
It says this reservation does not belong to this account . So 22 future reservations I am unable to select.
Back to another 30 minute overseas call to see if they can fix this
I said before 3rd graders would do abetter job in IT. Kindergarden would do better.
I am still waiting for my 258,000 points to be returned.

Mobile application comes handy. It just shows account without any b*sht.
I don't update mobile app coz I'm afraid of mobile CAPTCHA.
Audio challenge is much easier for web sing in. Still wrong & annoying.

Well, it looks like Hilton's found an even more secure method than captcha... they've removed all login links from their site entirely. Let us all congratulate them on fixing the problem!!

- Perform a random search for a hotel stating you want to use your HHonors points
- When the result show up, click to book the room
- Select the Hhonors rate and the login pop-up will show
- Once you login, then you can go back to "My Account"
