I got Punk'd.

[Aequitas58]

Here's a partial update for the railbirds:

(1) Yahoo Customer Support has been no help at all. Their response time is next to shit, but it's expected as they are so big. I was kind of savvy this morning: I used some information gained from Stars, applied it to my newly-jacked Yahoo Email account and obtained access. I instantly re-changed the passwords and personal information. My account is in tact, thankfully, nothing was deleted.

(2) Talked to Stars support, obtained his IP address, traced his IP - which led me to his street address. I have requested a postal inquiry from the Postmaster of his city to verify. In the interim, I have also reclaimed "Aequitas58" on Stars. With $.02 left in my account, and feeling susceptible to future hijacks, I contacted Stars support, created a new account and transferred my FFPs. I am now playing on Stars under a name that will remain secret. This person's accounts, (three to be exact), have been shut down and (I believe) his IP banned by Stars.

(3) I have deleted my Neteller account, and I will have to create a new one before re-depositing.

(4) I know who this person is, and it is a member of this forum. I have spoken to this person, and I have been promised that the money will be returned to me. I stressed to this person that, as a lawyer, I have not yet pulled the trigger on the possible charges he might be facing. These include, but are not limited to: wire fraud, bank fraud, criminal impersonation, criminal mischief, identity theft, harrassment, and maybe some new crimes generated by this wave of new cyber-"law." This person has until Friday to get a check or money order in the mail. For the time being, I will refrain from exposing this person.

(5) How did he lose the money? LOL. I guess he was surprised to only see ~$300 in there. I'm buying a house, and poker is taking a major backseat. Nevertheless, he sat w/ all of it at $15/30 lhe, and lost it w/in 10 hands. Stars cannot refund the money.

MISC:
-Neteller and Stars support are completely top notch. I had my Neteller problems dissolved in 1 hr, and I was able to get on the phone w/ Star Security w/in 24 hrs. At least that's a positive.
-I have not had to make a deposit into online poker since depositing after taking my bar exams (when I came back from my break). TY and GG, hijacker, for making me re-deposit.
-Be careful with your personal information. Let too much out, and someone can take advantage.
