This is a vbulletin board of a gent who hijacks ICQ UIN nbrs.

Today I noted I could not access my ICQ, my pw and email have been changed and there is a note in this acct in Russian and English, that its for sale.

This gent gives his icq as 415000 to contact.

Serge can you help me?

my ICQ he hijacked was 111472 . .....

Look at the bottom of my acct:

http://people.icq.com/whitepages/about_me/...%25U&Uin=111472

Can you help Serge?

It appears ICQ will not assist because I had an old email addy in the details.

So looks like I have to buy it back, can you negotiate this for me Serge and/or see what they want?

This really pisses me off.

Man, what is this world coming to when your ICQ numbers get hijacked???


Sad....

Ohhh that really sucks Lee. Damn. I have 365555 and I've been offer a few hundred for it already. I've had it for years. I'd never give it up.

Lee, ICQ # hijacking is very popular among Russians..
what do you want me to do?

Dang Lee,

People stealing other people's icq #'s now.....


That sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Welp Serge, he is Russian so you can communicate with him and see what he wants for those ICQ numbers...Im kinda fucked right now...and you are shrewd and wheel and deal him...

I doubt I can get this back in a legal way, the system is way to slow.

I could put him under server attack tho? Hmmmmmmmmm.

Anyhoo, make contact and see what he is asking, no doubt he charges the same for all numbers I hope.

I do not know what to do.....and language barrier does not help.

You have any ideas?

People will steal anything.

:blink:

Kath, can you believe this?

I know low UIN is a business but damn they don't have to go steal the damn low ones to sell off....

ICQ is not gonna be any help, so what is there left to do?

Fight back and ruin his day too I suppose.

Forgive my ignorance, but what value is there to a low ICQ number to anyone but the owner? I just don't get it. How does 6 digits vs 9 digits give it a monetary value?

Can someone splane it to me?

To some its easy to remember.

To some is cool to have a short low nbr

To some, its like a collectible.

Like a geek status symbol eh?

Who knows.

I got mine back in 1995 and thats why I have a low one.

Fucking asshole wants $300 for it.

Lee,
ask him where to send the money,
play along and when we get his identity and where he is,
I'll ask friends how feasable to do something about it...

Serge, he wants paypal.....can you tell any info from his vBulletin board since its in a language I do not understand?

no, I can't as it all fake...

tell him you don't have paypal but can do western union

I may be getting closer here....I think I know how he did this....

I am trying to get my old old old old email address back so I can get into my acct, it seems some one re-registered my old old old old email addy with bogus info thru a free mailing service.....anyhoo, I am control of the address right now, and once it gets to working, I can go to ICQ and have them send me the pw he assigned, and then I can lock him out, and if he requests the pw, I will know because I have control over the lionsrom@bitstorm.net addy now, and not him....

I am determined to get my ICQ back....

When I succeed Serge, I want to know how to say FUCK OFF ASSHOLE in Russian so I can put that in my profile for him to read.

My old old dial up ISP "bitstorm.net" give out email addresses now for free, so he registered my old one. They verified it, they killed it, they gave it back to me moments ago.

Just have pop issues right this moment. But I am hopeful.

Lee,
here is what you should tell him after you got it back:
Hui tebe v sraku mudoyob.
Sosi hui, bliad, i vspominai papu.

which can be translated as..
Dick up your ass cockholster,
suck dick and think of you sucking your father

should do the trick
;-)))

Serge has a magical way with words in ANY language!!

I found it brought tears to my eyes. Such hatred, I bet we lost alot in the translation.

Bravo!

Lee, add this too what Serge said.

poshol na khui, kooshi govno ee oomree. Tva ya mama sa seet
kor rov on ni ye hoy ee.

:D

:blink: :huh: :zoinks:

I bet he pees his pants and BEGS for forgiveness! Go get that ICQ#! lol

:nyanya:

I GOT my ICQ back.

That little asshole is gonna be surprised now. It worked my idea to go back and try to re-instate my old old old old email address which was what I needed to get this weasels pw from ICQ....I got the email, I got his password and I am connected and he is locked out....

Now to find where he embedded his for sale statement....ICQ innards has changed, how complex the options are.

Thanks VOO, I am going to register to his VBulletin board and say alot in Russian!

WTG lee :rokk:

Good job, smart move Lee!!!


:rokk: :rokk:

Ok, I feel all better I spoke the Russian to him in ICQ, and then deleted him from my list....ICQ back, its fine, he cannot get it again, and damn this has consumed my day....

Nothing slick about him, he prolly runs a script agains the numbers to see which emails get returned, then he tries to register that email address, if he can get the email ICQ will give you the pw.

I am guilty of having an old email address but it has been 7 years since I registered ICQ.

Anyhoo, I am a happy camper now.

My cat will be thankful :-)

Thank-you everyone :-)

XXXOOOO

i've seen icq #s for sale,
but does anyone actually buy them ??

Hey Slavv you own that GeoRedirect?

Mike,
i dont, but am marketing it
just started using it, and so far so good.

Cool, we will have to talk soon then.... I need a solution.

Congrats on getting that back so fast ! If only getting a domain hijacking were so quick...
I will finally get nlphoto.com back in about a week, but it has taken 3 months... :(

Good Job Lee!

But never say never, those russkies are pretty smart.

:o

Yah, people must buy them. I've seen several people fairly new to the Internet with 6 digit UINs. They either stole them or bought them.
