axl Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 On the pc that is, I was emailing a a guy on ebay, he said he's logged on the ip addy and warned me he'd report me if I continued to email him. How far can the police "look into it", (well he said he was a cop, with a black background on his email so I couldnt see what I was writing :evil: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 They can but they probably won't. They're all too lazy. If your not sending death threats or child pornography, they just don't really bother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axl Posted June 29, 2004 Author Share Posted June 29, 2004 I was bidding for a phone, but Iv'e got a - agains't me and he said didn't even let me bid!, I had said I'd emailed ebay regarding this but it didnt do anything at all. He just said along the lines of "tough luck, I'll report you to ebay", whether he did/will I dont know. Then I got an email from him with a very dark background with a police thing an it, and I will admit I kinda oh shit!, who's this. But like you say Iv'e been doing/sending nothing dodgy, apart from sending the odd pics to a mate of women :twisted:, but nope nothing serious. He said he'd tracked my IP addy, he probably has, but I think if NTL thought for a minute I'd been doing anything dodgy they'd have been "on my case" long before now, at least thats what I think.

Pete Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 Why do you think that I'm normally behind high anonymity proxy servers? Course once somebody's got your IP then you run the risk of being hacked. My signature gif is reading your IP info....but you're the only one who can see it. It's also reading mine, but the IP address that it shows is not my real IP. 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
