I sincerely wish that I could tell you there is away to catch this guy.  It is impossible to catch these criminals who usually work out of Romania, Russia an change proxy on a daily basis.  If law enforcement was able to catch them, they would not be making millions of dollars per day on people who do not use good common sense.  \n\nBelow is an indepth data from my BBC NEWS, London, England I received last week.   You will see how how they operate and how to protect yourself in the future.\n\nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/6083818.stm\n\nHere is another link that I get from the Government of Australia, as they are an agency that advises new threats to platforms an indepth knowledge on how to protect yourself when using the WWW.   (You will find that the key is good common sense, to prevent criminals from playing you like you were born yesterday).\n\nFor more information on transacting securely online, check out http://www.staysmartonline.gov.au\n\nSorry about your loss, but consider it a lession learned the hard way.   \n\nClinical Psychiatrist, France

Trying to locate someone on the net on one of these "friend" site might lead you to dead end searches and a lost of alot of moeny and time. I would look up a local private investgator (small cases like this are cheap if they require no travel) and see what they can do. That what i did, and at the end they delivred.

One person told you that Yahoo is very slow to act.  That is not true at all.  I get alot of hate male and finanical scams out of Nigeria, London, England, France, Canada and Colombia.  And Yahoo responds within minutes with a ID# to ref. the case.  \n\nAll you have to do is open options on the right hand side of the email and look for mail preference.  When you find header options, check off the box that says "Full Header",  Then drop to and save and go back to the emal and open and you will see the complete header of the ISP where the email was originated, all the ports that it may have went through and Yahoo ISP.   Now you have to forward to email to abuse@yahoo.com as an "inline text", if you attempt to send them any mail that is abuse without following the above instruction they will not respond.    \n\nEvery email that I sent to them I get an ID#, back from Yahoo.  An within two days they have completed their investigation.  An if the sender has broken the laws or the "EULA" agreement with Yahoo, their account has always been shut down. \n\nIf the above is to much trouble then all you  need to do is block this person.  Then they are unable to email you.   \n\nPeople who try use Yahoo and get no response back is because they don't follow the guidlines for financial scams, criminal, intent, or hate mail.   So what the hell to they expect from Yahoo when they don't get a reply back.   \n\nClinical Psychiatrist, France\nexcuse my english

I wouldn't count on getting that information from Yahoo, even though the person involved did rip you off it's a privacy matter.  You might want to contact your local police station to see if they have an internet fraud division.  Problem is, a lot of these scammers are overseas where the police can't touch them.\n\nThere is a very good chance you'll never see your money again.\n\nIn the future, if you receive an eBay related email to your email account, check your ebay messages on your My Ebay page.  If the email does not appear there, it's most likely a scammer email.

You are the victim of a phishing scam.  Yahoo would never ask you to "reconfirm" your account.  This is a very common scam.  \n\nYou will NEVER be asked to reconfirm your account information by ANY legitimate business or website!  If you receive one of these fraudulent e-mails, you should forwared it to the Abuse department of the business that the e-mail purports to come from.\n\nThe scammer has changed your password, this is why you are locked out of your account.\n\nYou should contact Yahoo and explain what happened.  Hopefully they will lock out that account so that the scammer cannot use it any more.  Yahoo may or may not get you access back into the account.  I wouldn't bet on that, though.\n\nYou might try to log on to it and go through the lost password recovery procedure.  If the scammer didn't change your settings, you will be able to recover the account.  Then give yourself a NEW password.  Make it something that someone won't guess easily.  \n\nIf you get this lucky, you should contact all of your friends and contacts on Yahoo and explain to them what happened.  The scammer has probably tried to scam them or send viruses or spyware to them pretending to be you.  Since your friends think that it's coming from you, they are more likely to trust the e-mail or message as being legitinate.\n\nIf they did change your details and secret question, the account is probably lost forever.

no idea. just file a report. they can track down the person with the camera in the location where the culprit picked up the money. That's all I can think of how they can track down the loser who stole your money. Plus...why western union?...use paypal for crying out. If not then use Ebay.

you should report this to yahoo or whatever your internet provider is. ask them abou it, then change your email and everything. you should also warn your friends. the hacker might have taken their info too.

Sure just read on:\n\nThere are no hacks...except there is a way to scam passwords out of people, but that account you used to hack (the newbie) will get banned.  Here are the steps:\n1. Make an account, finish tutorial Island, then head to a most crowded place.\n2. Keep repeating over and over "Jagex blocks your pass ***** see?" (Note 1: Jagex blocks the word "password". Note 2: You have to type in the same amounts of stars each time for it to be believable) \n3. if you think someone has said their password, log out and try it. If it says "your account is already logged in please try again later..." then change the password, set recovery questions (be sure to write them down), and it's yours!  Log in on your newbie again and repeat to hack more people!  (Note: Be Sure to write down the original password becuase you will need it if the original owner asks Jagex to get it back)\n\nAfter you log in: Once you log into the hacked account, write down the origianl IP address.  To do this, you have to log in.  The first window will say on top "Last logged in at (time) from (IP Address)."  Write down that IP address on the same place you wrote the recovery questions and original password.  This will help you recover your account if the original owner has asked Jagex to give it back.  You can always go back to the main menu and click on "Recover a Lost acocunt." Follow the steps there then you can have it back if you ever get it stolen or forgot the password.\n\nAlternative: You can, using your newbie account, scam individually accounts of their passwords.  You have to know the username of the victim, then hide somewhere you KNOW that no one will see you, Chat him privately saying "Greetings (victim's name here), my name is John from Jagex Staff.  I would like to congratulate you on being our monthly winner of 5000k or 5mil." (New message) "You are the 5 thousandth person to log in this month!  I will need your pass to transfer the money."\nAfter he gives the password, tell him this "now log in for no less than 10 minutes, or the transfer will not work." Try to see if it works.  If it does, then CHANGE IT!  Write down the IP address too, Change the Recovery questions, and write them all down.  The account is now yours.

I am afraid that your account has been stolen by so called 'phishing' email.\n\n"Phishing (a play on the word "fishing") is an attempt by fraudsters to get you to reveal your personal or financial information by impersonating legitimate companies. These fraudsters send fake emails or instant messages in the hopes that the recipient will divulge data such as user names and passwords, credit card or bank account numbers, or even Social Security or driver's license numbers. Once they have that information, fraudsters use it to commit identity theft."\n\nFor more information, please check out the links below from Yahoo and see what steps you can do:\n\nhttp://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/spam/spam-27.html\nhttp://help.yahoo.com/help/us/sbiz/abuse/abuse-02.html\n\nBy searching in Y! Answers, I found the following past answer from Scara about how to contact Yahoo.\n\n"Email the yahoo account security department.. they are able to verify the past information on the account... if any changes have been made they are able to see the changed info.. there email address is account-security-help@ cc.yahoo-inc.com when you email them just put your yahoo id in the subject line and in the body of the email just tell them what happened.. They will send you a list of 8 questions.. Just reply to that email.. do not change the subject line.. and answer the questions.. they will be able to verify those questions based on the original registration information and should be able to help you access back into your account."

As has already been said, if you are even thinking of responding to an unsolicited e-mail regarding a big sum of money and a promise that you'll receive a big chunk of it FORGET IT! You will lose your money.\n\nHowever, if there is a legitimate reason why you wish to deal with this bank and are trying to confirm its address then you might want to visit www.firstbanknigeria.com and check out their branch address search. I see no Abuja listed. I do see Abia.

Hi, from what I've been reading .. it doesn't look good. You can check the links below, but from what I read, if someone has hacked your account and changed the p/w yahoo can't do anything about it .. sorry. Probably the only way would be if someone hacked the hacker.

Wow, I hope you can get a hold of someone at Yahoo. That exact same thing happened to my roomate. He forwarded a phishing email to report it and got his account closed too! Not on Yahoo, but another email service. After writing a complaint letter about it he got the account back in a week or two.\n\nWhat are you supposed to do???? How stupid is that~!
