I would like your help tracking down whoever this person is.
#Skype account setup password#
(I did the same thing to the gmail account that the thief created using my email address as its password recovery address.) This is why I am currently writing to you from that account - I have taken over the account, which I think is perfectly legitimate since it was created using my email address and whoever created it is obviously up to no good. I received an email address notifying me of this fact because this individual apparently attempted to purchase a Skype credit but did not complete the transaction.īecause I obviously do not want people on the Internet impersonating me or using my email address for nefarious purposes, I used your password recovery feature to reset the password on this account so that it is one that I know and the identity thief does not. Today, a new one occurred - this individual signed up for a skype account with the skype name bouba.diallo30 and using my email address. I am worried that whoever this person is may have used my email address at other sites as well, but these are the ones I know about. I don’t honestly expect them to respond in any useful way, but I figured it was worth a try:Īs described at, someone I do not know has been going to various sites all over the internet and interacting with those sites using my email address, The things that I am aware of before today are (a) submitting a bizarre support request to Starwood hotels customer service and (b) creating a gmail account with my email address specified as its password recovery address. Then I sent this message to Skype’s customer support department. I.e., I stole the account from the identity thief, just as I did when he signed up for a gmail account using my email address. I immediately took advantage of Skype’s password recovery feature to reset the password on the account. They emailed me about it because he attempted to purchase Skype credit but didn’t complete the transaction.
Today, however, I did get a notification from one site that I didn’t know about before - he apparently signed up for a Skype account using my email address. I suspect that in addition to the ones I know about, this individual is probably also doing things that I don’t know about, because I assume that not all the web sites at which he’s using my address are kind enough to send me an email address alerting me to what he’s doing.
As I previously reported, somebody has been interacting with Web sites using my email address.
