Someone has hacked into my gmail account, changed the password and then sent the following message to everyone in my contact list. He then continued to stay on for hours g-chatting with my friends, trying to scare them and swindle money from them.
I don't understand why there is no way to report something like this to google via the telephone or even a live chat... other than a form you fill out that doesn't even send you a confirmation, there is nothing.
This guy was on my gmail for hours, If I couldve alerted someone, don't you think they could have tracked his IP number and found him... or at least suspended my account right away before he got access to 4 YEARS of very personal information?!
IS there anything I can do now?

Hi, This is a private, confidential and urgent matter I wish to discuss with only you, I would appreciate it if you do not tell anyone about this.Firstly, i must apologise to you for not telling about my most recent where abouts. I recently made a quick but short vacation trip here to UK(London)..all was going on well as I lodged myself in a very good hotel until when i was robbed of all my possesions including my handbag where i have my cash and bank cards. In an attempt to struggle with the robbers i was badly hurt and wounded and i got hospitalized.
I am writing you a mail from my bed here in the hospital to loan me some money so I can pay my hospital bills since i dont have an available valid medical insurance here and also to purchase a return ticket back home as soon as possible. The doctor here in the hospital I am ready to be discharged but they would not let me go until I pay up all my bills. My bill here in the hospital is about a 1000 pounds and I need another 600pounds to book my ticket as my credit card as also been stolen.
Please, I would be needing a loan of 1600Gbp which is about 3,276USD.
I would be very grateful if you could help me in anyway you can to get out of here and get back to my life back in the states. I hope to read from you soon..... Thanks, Shelly. |
that sux. Read this post: http://groups.google.com/group/Gmail-Problem-solving/browse_thread/thread/aec84b7000e0917e
You basically have to go to https://services.google.com/inquiry/gmail_security1 and fill out as much information as possible.
I believe this is the only way to do it.
Hope this helps. Thanks |

> it's a keystroke script > i think i have found it > can anyone help me
We might, provided that:
(1) you elaborate IN LENGTH on the symptoms – how does it manifest itself; how you found it; and what does it "do."
(2) you promise us NEVER EVER to abuse the Proper Capitalization AND Punctuation Rules (=a sign of intellect and respect for your readers-cum-prospective helping "gnomes.")
Deal? |
