Urgent Alert
« on: February 26, 2008, 01:54:29 AM »
I am writing this in a very sullen tone to alert people to a massive identity fraud being thrust upon the community. An ex member of our site (and many others) who has used multiple names being Jane Wilson, EMH, Laura Strong, SpaceDude and most famously known for impersonating with scooter has apparently set up a forum using accounts set up with a lot of our names and making posts from them all posing as us, I have a name there, Telex Ferra and Alex Wendaltz, scooter of RPG-X is there, Sitak of Unistar is there, along with an array of others.

Luckily Telex Ferra found the site and brought it to our attention immediately so we could alert people. This person was stupid enough to sign up to the forums with the same email address they used on one of their named accounts to our forums a m.sutton@yahoo.com.au so when I registered with name of "reb" to see what was going on I got the confirmation email from his address.

The above person seems so far to have targeted people who have either insulted him or banned him in our case in the past but either way it is out of order and immature and goes hand in hand with him trying to impersonate people before and trying to gain access to our groups server password.

The site address is http://all_team_club.getforum.org/forum/index.php

We felt the best way to address it was to bring it to the attention of groups who have been impersonated here so that they can deal with it the best way they feel necessary. If admins would like IP tracks of this person to check any other members of their forums then I can provide them via PM if you request them.

Could I have a copy of the info please Ross.

I also will back up on whatever Ross and Holo Fed admins agree on what action to be taken against this person.

This identity fraud is very highly illegal and we could involve the internet police should this matter get any worse.

Also -=SW:JARPG=- will co-operate with the authorities if need be.
