==Overview==
2015 was the sixth official [[Hack Forums]] April Fool’s event. This year members were told to activate 2 Factor Authentication on their accounts by clicking on a link. The link led to a page wishing the members a Happy April Fools.

==Specifics==
The header banner of the website told users that 2 Factor Authentication had been released and visit [http://www.hackforums.net/2fa.php this link] to register. Upon visiting the link, members were show a QR Code which led to a [http://www.hackforums.net/aprilfools2015.php page] saying
<blockquote>April Fools! Yes, I know you want 2FA and seriously it's coming but for now I got a joke out of it.</blockquote>

==Effects==
Older members were expecting a prank, however, many were fooled by the 2 Factor Autentication banner because it was common knowledge that [[Omniscient]] had been working on it.

Omniscient [http://www.hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=4774470 released] a working Gauth 2-Factor Authentication System 10 days later.
