Just got a PM from a fellow named Bleh

Unfortunately my password was not quite that hard to get by the looks of it.

PM'd Chuy but not heard anything back, also changed any accounts that I have that are similar to the gamespy account.

The little man wants my bf2 account password...

Yeah, I did. But the email shit was still distorted. Unless he did that on purpose so people didn't know it. Damnit I hate morning.

nah just right click on the image and go view, then use the zoom, the details he has that he screenshot aren't anything i'm worried about people knowing, just the general details you enter into a gamespy account.

my image is a screendump of the one he attached to the PM.

Geez;

1. take a hexadecimal password, or strong alpha numeric.
2. spam that Bleh fellow till he dies.
3. change all passwords you got.

Who cares. The worst he can do is try to harass you with e-mails or PMs. Change your passwords (use alpha numeric passwords). If he is demanding your BF2 password then just laugh in his face because he has nothing if he has to ask for that. Lewser.
If by chance he starts calling your house/cell just notify the police and press harassment charges. Then who will have the last laugh?

Beat me to it...

If he doesn't have your BF2 password, then what's the worst thing he can do?  Change your First and Last name?  Put your postcode to "Ismell99"

?

You probally have a trail. He probally photoshopped ur details using research ... if he had the ability, he would have already change ur password. Don;t reply back through your regular isp connection (if you even intend on replying), use a webmail client through tor (http://tor.eff.org/).

Plus - just for security - run a scan for keyloggers and backdoor trojans.

Then get his address, go to his house, kick the door in and beat the shit out of him...and tell him that it seems he doesn't take care about his security....

And report back on the forum with a link to where we can download the movie of the beating.

If you think he's gotten some kind of password from your gamespy account, or anywhere else, you should also think about changing your passwords that actually matter, like banking, email and so on.

Other than that, you should definitely be reporting this to Gamespy, for a start.  I also think that the admins here at BF2S will be a little unhappy with their site being used for extortion, and my crystal ball tells me that this Bleh character is likely to face a ban, hopefully they'll be able to trace an IP or something.


Fact is, what he's doing is illegal.  Were it not something so trivial as a Gamespy account (which I can't think is worth the hassle), you could get the law involved, in which case Bleh's IP could probably be tracked down and his ISP ordered to withdraw services.  (You'd be surprised how willing ISPs are to take internet access away from people who are breaking the law on it.  They're terrified of being implicated as accomplices in things like fraud, extortion, kiddie porn and so on.)

Anyway, I wouldn't worry too much.  Make all your other stuff secure, and get your anti-virus searching for trojans and so on, and you should be fine.
