Talk to your email provider and they may help you depending on how much damages that has caused you. Usually I would say it is really diffcult to get there corporation unless you have the local police involved in the same .. ./thanks ilaiy On 5/1/06, helen wilkinson-makey <helen () wilkinson-makey co uk> wrote:
My personal email provider records the IP address of every success and failed log in. An IP address tried to access my account on Thurs 27th April at 10.29am. A quick check on www.ripe.net aroused my suspicions immediately when I found out the ISP. Further checks on google revealed the IP address seems to belong to a large organisation that knows me. More extensive google searches revealed this IP address was regularly and consistently left on a forum where this person was talking about a major IT project that I am an extremely well known opponent too. This person also left another IP address on the forum which again is linked to another major organisation that knows me. Is there anyway I can track when this IP was doing on a given day ( web page visited etc) and preferably within a time scale??? I know I will need to get radius records but I want to investigate this as far as possible myself. From what I have uncovered so far this attempted log in is highly suspicious. I have discussed this in detail with my email provider they too are of the same opinion. I am based in the UK.
