OrangeSoul Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 I Pm`d someone a Gmail account, made it for him i mean and when I emailed to this account I got a reply with name "Stolen Gmail account" That can only happen with someone else reading the PM and that is a Moderator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeSoul Posted May 4, 2004 Author Share Posted May 4, 2004 it could also be a User who personally knows this guy : Jerry is his Username who i made the account for. So Jerry if you know someone who knows your first and last name ON neowin then he is the guy who stole your gmail account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadishTM Veteran Posted May 4, 2004 Veteran Share Posted May 4, 2004 No. Get your facts right - moderators CANNOT read member's PM's, only Admins can. And I highly doubt it was either Neobond, Redmak or Voodoo. Radish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have broken no laws, and even if I had, feel free to trace to a neighbor down the road with an open WAP. And if you really do work for google, heres an idea for a new feature, how about some email headers with my orginating IP address? you know, like hotmail uses. would make tracking me down much easier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeSoul Posted May 4, 2004 Author Share Posted May 4, 2004 Look at your first post, read the second line - and see where you are contradicting your second post.Radish? my mistake . i was just made someone stole an account i made for a neowin fellow EDIT: change topic to : A neowin user stole a gmail account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmuZombie Veteran Posted May 4, 2004 Veteran Share Posted May 4, 2004 it could also be a User who personally knows this guy : Jerry is his Username who i made the account for. So Jerry if you know someone who knows your first and last name ON neowin then he is the guy who stole your gmail account Its not that hard to find out "Jerry"'s full name. Here's how simple it is. https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showuser=32225 from that we see he has an msn email address and from there we can go to http://profiles.msn.com/aihussain@msn.com And look, we have a first and last name. Not only that, but, taking a look at this thread, you now know his user name. https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showuser=32225 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-=SD=- Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 Damn, then he just uses the e-mail to reply.. so looks like you'll see it on ebay :( Though I would see if you can contact someone at ebay to get it back.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangbang023 Veteran Posted May 4, 2004 Veteran Share Posted May 4, 2004 1) You've gotta have some set to just acuse someone on staff of stealing the account. I don't know anyone on the staff, not one person at all, who would be like that. I haven't been around all too long as a staffer, but the guys who have certainly deserve more respect than that. 2) It's an email account. Calm down. Create a new screen name and live on.
