Hi all
I've been aware of/ looking at this site for years (not been over recently) and have just joined up
My g/f has been "bank acc hacked" a couple of times over the last 12 months. I was wondering if anyone here can help. The last episode was this week. We have a name and an IP address.
All advice / direction gratefully noted and received

depends what can be done with an IP address I guess
G/f is getting the money back from her bank, it wasn't huge amounts, but it is a bloody liberty. Last time it was train tickets and online clothes shopping. We recon we got it down to a dodgy till clerk in a wine shop in Calais
This time it's been used for online gaming and porn web site. Again not huge amounts of money, but a cheek
All we have is an alleged name and an IP address. Can anthing be done with that |

Since they have personally identifiable information, the official line from here at least would be Leave Alone, I'd imagine - One for the Old Bill if they'll help you. Turning up at his place with a length of wood will see you in the hole very quickly, even if you get the right guy. |

A good point that I had not considered (which is why I have not personally baited) |

Get her to change her Bank Account (if she hasn't already) - quickly!
Unlikely the fraud squad can/will do anything with the IP address etc, but report it anyway. |

Obviously she is doing something wrong for it to happen multiple times. The best way we can help would be to suggest she learn how to select a secure password and be more careful using the account. Although I don't really know what "bank acc hacked" means in this case. |

A thorough computer cleansing to remove any malicious software would probably be a good idea. I'm not sure how her info was compromised, but that is one possibility.
Any chance she followed instructions in a phishing email lately? |

Very good points Luckey.
After you had complained the first time, any info swiped by the wine shop bandit would have been relatively useless.
I'm surprised she's not on a watch list that blocks any dodgy transactions. It can be a bit of a pain, but it usually runs smoothly. |
