Is my screen name being hacked?

SomeGuy · 05-21-2002, 08:57 PM

My friend,Brian,and me have been talking through aol instant messanger for awhile.Lately he has been saying "Why did you notify aol on me? or Why did you warn me?" I have a feeling that my screen name is being hacked.It's either that or Brian's pulling my leg.Can someone help me.I'm getting worried.Why do these people want to make my life even more of a misery?

I'd say he is messing with you.....ask to see the TOS letter he would have been sent by aol. Forward it to me. I know EXACTLY what they look like lol.

SomeGuy · 05-21-2002, 09:14 PM

There is only one problem LoA.I can't.I have'nt found out how to send an email to aol unless I notify them.

Lord of Alcohol · 05-21-2002, 09:20 PM

No I meant tell him to forward the TOS e-mail he supposedly recieved to you. Tell him YOU want to see it.

SomeGuy · 05-21-2002, 09:24 PM

Okay I will....but what if he deleted the email?

Well AOL screennames are pretty easy to hack, hapened to quite a few people I know, inculding my self.

Very well could be. I would doubt that it's anything serious, identity hackers usually go for SIN#'s, credit card numbers, bank acct info etc... My guess is it's someone screwing with you. If it's that much of a problem contact your ISP. They can probably sort it out for you.
