Finally, a little closure.
A year ago, I found out that I couldnt open my old Yahoo! mail account due to a password change that I didn't authorize. I lost all the emails that I had saved since 1998. I was pretty heartbroken to say the least. What really pissed me off was that a few months after I lost my account, someone started going online using my account. Naturally, everyone who knows me by my ID started sending him messages but never got any replies.
I finally caught him online this morning and got to talk to him (I'm manitouraven):


c_headrush: why u add me
manitouraven: because i know someone with the same yahoo id
manitouraven: i thought you were him
manitouraven: who are you?
c_headrush: i becomming this is from friend
manitouraven: oh yeah?
manitouraven: who is your friend?
c_headrush: name by yahoo is snake
manitouraven: where are u located?
c_headrush: from germany berlin
manitouraven: do u have the same email account? c_headrush?
c_headrush: yes lol i think no
manitouraven: oh cause my friend had the same account but then he couldnt open it
manitouraven: one day
c_headrush: snake say to me he have traded id for another
manitouraven: so do u still have the old emails of my friend?
c_headrush: no i working with another alternative email
manitouraven: oh ok
c_headrush: another email is still
manitouraven: oh i always wondered about that
manitouraven: this is so wierd. ive nevr heard of this happening before
c_headrush: u owned self undys and more ?
manitouraven: what? sorry i didnt understand that
c_headrush: u cracking ids ?
manitouraven: no, of course not
c_headrush: i like it
c_headrush:
manitouraven: well, that sucks.
c_headrush: for me no is nice
manitouraven: well, my friend felt really bad
c_headrush: ahh understand
c_headrush: why ?
manitouraven: because many people tried to contact him with the old ID and they couldnt reach him
manitouraven: and he also lost his email account c_headrush, and lost all his old emails which he had saved
c_headrush: hmm he have traded this id not lost acount
manitouraven: no, he lost it.


Well, he stopped replying after this, and right before I could call him a mother*bleep*er.

A year later, I'm just as pissed as the day I found out, but at least I have some sort of closure now.

Happened to me as well. All my emails and contacts since the highschool years. It hurt so bad. I envy your closure. I never even got the chance to say goodbye. *sob*

Someone a couple of months ago kept on hacking a friend's Yahoo account and would send me (why me?) very weird messages about the guy who owns the account. Like, information that would piss me off.

The other day, another friend of mine went online in YM and kept on messaging me senseless stuff, I had a gut feel that his account was being hacked... so what I did was

Me: You're not Jay. Go away.
Hacker: Hahaha
Me: Stop it. Go away.
Hacker: :-p

*Calls up Jay in his cellphone late at night and asks if he's online. He's not.

Me: Stop fucking with his account.
*Goes offline

WTF?
