as you can see its him

[chumkila]

looks like Shacky's either good with photoshop or jayrs has been pulling wool over our eyes.

[Robz_Fester]

Well he's either wicked at photoshop or..... it look sto be Jayrs!

I have had a few fcuk ups with the PMs before though, so i wouldn't take it as 100% gospel...

[joel_winders]

utter confusion now !

[pornstar!]

summat fishy is goin on, is identity theft possible?

hope this gets sorted

[MFkev]

This has got to be a mix up, Jay lives on the IOW. The address you sent the money to is Newbury.

[NellyFRST]

Correct me if i'm wrong, but that says that he's got parts there if you wanted them to the value of £30. Not £150! And he definately seems to be from the IOW.

[Andy Shackleton]

we did the thing over the phone it was faster 2 talk 2 him as i needed the parts asap as i have a young baby so i needed my car bk on the road

[andyleesy]

plus my best mate thats helping me with the car is in the army and hes going to pull some strings

hmmm..veeee

hope this gets sorted, it would be nice to hear a reply from jayrs ??

[Chris 2i]

this sort of talk isn't going to win you much support is it?

the guy apparantly lives on the IOW and you sent the payment elsewhere.

Surely you should try to get some answers from Jayrs and the site admin before deciding what to do?

throwing nob-like threats around only serves to make people think you're a gammon slipper.

[andymac]

Yup, and I'm leaving this one for Ade. If the threats persist you'll find your account locked fella, so play it cool.

[~nomad~]

sounds to me like someone has Jays log in details. Might be an idea to look into this properly mate before threatening to take the army to the IOW

[Andy Shackleton]

well im going 2 check the address and wait 2 se what ade says i kool down a bit now but im sure u can all understand whats happened so i wait 4 ade 2 get hold of me then have a talk with him and then think were 2 go from there.

[a1si]

very confusing , need to be brought to a swift close, got to admit though the post by shacky looks geniune enough! I noticed that the post was sent at 2:50am unusual, which may imply that someone has access to jayrs account!

Ive just been on the phone 2 the post office and jamie wise has signed for the £ and i now have all the proof i need trip 2 see PC nick foster me thinks

[Project]

How did you get the address? By PM, e-mail, phone or...?

Double, triple check the address definitely came from jayrs chap.

Also, how did you send the money? Cheque, cash, PO or...? And was it sent recorded?

Please don't embarass me. being in the army does not make us/me superhuman and/or a thug. You can pass that message onto your mate too.

Anyway,

For what its worth i would imagine this is some kind of identity theft and you are being/have been scammed. Best solution is to contact ade to let him sort it out.

Agreed, its not like your mates gonna borrow a tank and drive you to his house with a big "crew"

Hope you get it all sorted.

[purple_fiesta]

surely anyone can sign a name, doesnt meen it was him!

[XRMike]

i joined jun last year,and recently problems have occured where peoples accounts have been supposedly hacked. i myself find this worrying,with hammy-fiesta's account being supposedly hacked,and now this situation,if this is the situation and peoples accounts are being hacked,what can be done to prevent it now before more porblems occur?

[Dazza]

Mike it will help if you change your password every month. If it asks for a security question, choose something people cant guess, AND dont sign up just a MSN account as there easily hacked

[XRMike]

cheers mate

[Smo]

The only way people will get access to your account is through your own actions/choices.

Choose proper passwords, not easy things and don't let people use/know/figure out your email account details.

Just use your heads and you'll never have a problem

[XRMike]

cheers mate, i think a sticky should be made advising people about their account security. just a little idea

[AdrianFRST]

You can't hack someone's account without them knowing:

The passwords are stored in the database as one way encryption so when you register and choose a password of "opensesame" it stores it in the database (db) as "e6078b9b1aac915d11b9fd59791030bf".

When you log in again, it takes the "opensesame" and encrypts it again before comparing it to what is stored in the db for your user record. If it matches it lets you in.

So even if you had direct access to the db and could read the user record for Joe Bloggs, you wouldn't be able to convert the md5 encrypted password back to plain text to be able to log in.

You may be able to change the password but then Joe himself wouldn't be able to log in so it would set alarm bells ringing.

In short, there is no way to hack into someone's account without them knowing. The only way would be to obtain their password through other methods - maybe a shared PC at work or Uni, or by a phishing scam with a fake login page.

cheers mate, i think a sticky should be made advising people about their account security. just a little idea

I think that would be condescending. Logic dictates that anything that requires a password requires some level of security and care should be taken to ensure that password remains confidential.

[ianFRST]

well he's (jaysrs) just been on, in this forum and didnt reply

[jayrs]

ive been at work so been unable to reply.

yes, that is a copy of the PM i sent to you mate, but at no pojn t did i give a mobile number or a address, you didnt agree to buy anything off me!

yes i live on the isle of wight, people have bought ftom me before and can confirm that my address is on the isle of wight.
aslo me name is jason, not james or what ever it was.

sorry mate you got me confussed with someone else, how and why i dont know, i have had a email from Adrian and i am going to be sorting this out.

as for the recorded delivery thing, check the address it was delivered to, it wasnt mine, i have not ripped you off, i would not rip you off and i have never ripped anyone off.

my password has now been changed on my profile so if anyone has managed to hack it which i cant see how they wont be able to again.


if you really wanna come down with "ya mates" please do so, its not me your after but if ya wanna come down and kick off, trust me, your go home in a ambulance

[jayrs]

Could we not temp Ban JayRS until he does a password change? As it must be the scammer surely!

i am not a scammer! i have changed my password

[XRMike]

i dont think daz ment you were the scammer,but temporly ban you untill you change your password(which you have).

whatever has happened its causing friction on the site which is no good.

[Dazza]

Apoligises for my comments I did not mean to suggest what I did, was just thinking, what if it was a scammer on your account. Just a few people have mentiond all sorts.

No harm ment
