Thanks for the translation. Poor guy probably got phished or used a weak password. Now that this campaign is on (to have us all register our mobiles), there is an increased chance that hackers will send phishing emails with fake links to grab our credentials.

Everyone should be manually navigating to the Asiamiles site to set up their mobile number. Don't enter any passwords into sites you were brought to from a link in an email, even if you think the email is real. There exists malware that can hijack clicks to legitimate URLs and divert them to the hacker's phoney website which is a direct copy of the real site. Thats why your bank's emails always uses an image to represent a website's URL, and it can't be clicked.
