OK here's the deal...

Some dude apparently hacked into my email and change my password on the account. Then he got on Yahoo Messenger and start asking people on my list for money. He's telling people that I'm stuck in Canada and need the money to come back to US. So this dumbass gave his name and address to people on my list (including my girlfriend's ID) and ask them to Western Union the money to him

So I've google him (thanks to Scott's advice) and find his phone number also:

Andre Collin
1178 Rue De Lintendant
Charlesbourg, QC G2L1E6
Tel.: (418) 624-1697

All I'm trying to do is get my email back cuz this is where I get my mails everyday. I'm trying to reset the password but I have no sucess since my "secret answer" doesn't match my "secret question". I've pretty much change all my password on other accounts (paypal, ebay, etc....) since this is the password I use for everything that's online

Anyways, what am I suppose to do now? Can I report this mofo to the police or something?

What I really want to do is call this mofo and bitch him out and tell him how stupid he is in attempting to collect money from my friends!!!! :whip: :whip:

btw...if he ask any of you guys for $$ under my yahoo name, PLZ don't send ANYTHING!! I'm still in Georiga

I will be willing to call him ever minute for the next few hours if you want. Act like the WORST telemarketer in histor... "How would you like to buy Joe Schmoe's Internet security suite for the low price of $19.95 US?!? Gaurenteed to keep you safe from yourself!" Hell I will set it up on a remote dialer so I do not even need to talk to him it just rings every minute or so and gives him the latest flight arrivals and weather in India or something.

As far as what you can do. Contact Yahoo ASAP.

hax0r!

ya thats kinda wierd, but i dont think he is breaking any laws? is he?n maybe he is im no jhonny cockwtvr his name was.. :p

anyhow ya changing the pw on everything is a good idea... knowing ur secret question is too though :/
Mr. Pink
wasn't there some sort of "internet police" installed at some point?

specifically dealing with douche bags like this guy:wtf:
lightside
if he wasn't so far away i would recommend going to his house and taking care of the problem yourself.

But contacting yahoo is probably your best bet. The cops won't do jack plus i don't think he is breaking any laws other than hacking.
