Hey,

I know this doesnt belong on this forum, but I dont visit the other forum so Im looking for help from you all. I had an ebay account, (I am selling a truck) in which I got a letter from ebay stating that my information was changed, etc. The person used my cc to put his stuff under my account. I called them and got it all straighten out, but i want to know more.

Can someone tell me how to find someone, or location through Ip address.

Here is the info that was used to change my account:

Change of email address request was made from:
IP Address: 195.93.60.101
ISP Host: 10.10.63.252

10.'s are not public IP's. 10.10.63.252 is nat'ed which means if you don't have more of the packet info, it's useless to you. I'll trust the reverse lookup someone else posted that the 195. is AOL proxy, which only suggests the location of that system and has NO BEARING whatsoever on the user's locale. They are probably using an open AOL proxy server to mask their activity. Unless full packets were grabbed, it will be nearly impossible to track.

You'll have to find another way to track them down.

So ebay e-mailed you? Did you speak with their customer service, contact them from their web page that you navigated to on your own, or go through a link in an e-mail?

Ebay accounts have been targeted by spoof e-mail many times over. NEVER click a 'customer service' link anyone sends you, for any site, regardless if you have an account with them. Always navigate to their site on your own. Not only are you potentially validating an e-mail address for someone, but you prove naiveté and open yourself to be a future target for other spoof attempts. If you didn't click a link in e-mail, great, but it's important to know for those that might be tempted to do so.

I'd like to know more about the letter you got from them. Basically NEVER trust an email from any financial institution.....EVER. too easily faked.

Amen. NEVER click a link in an e-mail from an institution of any sort. It's most likely phishing.

And the 'Well, how'd they know I have an account with such and such....' is like your visit to Madame Zorba. If they guess enough, they'll hit. How many customers does Chase have? Or Ebay? or Bank of America?......
