Yes, if you let them apply some sort of "social engineering" on you and make you give them something useful for them to hack you.

But most likely not.

It means something like, they trick you to give them those kind of info, but i don't think you're dumb enough to do that.

For example:

Hacker: Hey bro, my id is some easy thing im scared im gonna get haxored, what about yours?
You: Well, mine aint that good too, its like my chars name*
Hacker: Oh i see bro, well cya around men take care

*: Fail!, hope you understand this..

They already know your ID they can Bruteforce or something.. anyways it is very hard to do so now, so don't worry.

I didn't invent it, some guildmates heard it, and I just wanted to verificate it. So the answer is no except when Stupidity enters.

Hack is the product of other peoples(hackers) intelligence.

Scam is the product of your stupidity. :)
