Perv hacked into daughters MSN account
my 15 yr old daughterr had her MSN account hacked into a couple of days ago, whereby they had hacked into a friends msn account and pretended to be
her. they then stated to her, they had her password and took control of her account and would only give it back if she did 3 minutes on web cam for
them,( my daughter informed me straight away and was in a right state) they boasted they had been doing this for 5 years and had still not been
caught!, can anyone help out as to what to do to try and catch this oxygen thief! they had aslo hacked into my daughters friends facebook account
too. Daughter has closed her msn account down, any genuine helpful advice greatly appreciated. --( would like to meet them!!!)

as they've used her friends account how can they be traced?
best thing to do is get all her friends to change their passwords to proper ones. No doubt there boy band members names or something equally
stupid.

When i log into my gmail account, it does log the IP address of where i am.
Surely MSN do the same, and this can be given to the autorities, and tracked back accordingly.
But to get this sort of information the police would have to get involved, you could not get it yourself.

maybe Chris or Fozzie would be able to tell you just what kind of information can be expected

Why are you wasting time asking on here - go straight to the police. They need to know about this stuff.

I would contact these people in this order...
1. Police
2. Your ISP
3. MSN
4. Your daughter's friends parents
At least your daughter alerted you straight away on this - the worry is how many parents have no idea what their kids are upto online. Hope her and
her friends are OK!

So from now on, apart the conversation that you have with your children about Sex and everything else, you need to have a conversation about the
internet and the rest.

I don't think the internet is a place for kids on their own tbh. There's no way I'd let them use it unsupervised and the computer
should be in the living room not a bedroom

police.
I am sure if the police wanted to, they could play them along to arrange a meeting, that is if they are not too busy eating doughnuts or stopping
drivers doing 56.738 mph in a 50 mph dual carriageway.

yes, but the problem is that children have access to other computers as well and you might not always be there with them.

They do, I have 1st hand experience of it, not from the offender angle I might add.

and shes 15, so you know what that makes them... police would love to know that.
make sure she changes her passwords etc asap too. has she ever logged into one of these 'see who deleted or blocked you on msn' type
things. you put in your email address and password, and to be fair it does show you, but it also sends a email to everyone in you email. fairly tame,
but i guess it depends who it is. with the info you put in, they could do whats been happening

Certainly this is a Police matter.... I work in IT security and MSN will be more than happy to assist the Poice with this. Get onto them straight
away.

I can speak very highly of CEOPS having previously referred matters to them. Despite the fact that what I was referring seemed perhaps a bit trivial
they jumped on it very quickly

Sorry to say that the chances of finding anyone are slim..
Report it anyway...
For an experienced web programmer it would not be difficult to exploit the system and do things such as this with little chance of having a trace
completed!

Its also attempted extortion of a minor, child abuse, fraud (hacking?), grooming, etc etc.
I would call the police straight away. They will deal with it, albeit quietly until they get close to catching him / her.
Kindest Regards,

Going on from this thread, and i do hope it has been sorted now
I also have come across a problem on my grandsons (reece) yahoo email account,
basicly a friend, has used Reece's email account to access a couple of porn sites, and is using the email account for himself, so i changed the
password, and even Reece doesnt know it.
I checked every couple of days, nothing new to report, then last week, i can not access the account, as its had its password changed
So now we reece has an email account that he cant use, his mate is using it for dodgy porn sites, Yahoo dont give a stuff as we can not get the
password, and its sending me over the edge
i have left the best bit to the end, Reece is 9, NINE, and so is the mate
if only i could get into reeces account and once in, can contact yahoo, to close it down
