I'm under investigation

[buddhistgrandma]

My hope is that your right and they dont care. That would be my guess of what will happen. But still, I'm terrified. I don't know if they can charge me with anything, but idk.

If the police come to meet me, I'm going to say:
1) I just started phishing
2) I dont think its illegal
3) I only did it on people who are breaking blizzards rules
4) its virtual property
5) I haven't taken anything yet (not true, but its what I'm going to say)

I can also pull out the depressed emo cutter role. I used to be very depressed and cut myself. I can say that my account got scammed away, and WoW is the only thing that keeps me from cutting myself. I didn't want to level a toon all the way up again, so I tried to take the easy way out. *Start crying*

That is the most retarded email I have ever seen. Really...I work for the sheriff's dept as well as F.b.i doing child safety. If they really wanted to nab you, do you really think they would send a email to you saying they notified the police and were coming to get you. Lol..You have nothing to worry about at all.

Thank you for your post. And Thank you Polires, and others. I'm starting to become calmer. I was just frantic when they sent the email, but now that I think about it, the FBI and police wont investigate people stealing virtual game accounts.

I wouldn't say anything without the advice of a lawyer should something happen

[Alloaaa]

Yes i think Dark-Storm is right. The just want to scare you.

It actually scared me a bit too, good luck and ill keep an eye on this thread please tell us how did it end

[tomoboi]

Everybody who is trying to scare this guy please STFU!

Anyway dude, what did you do?

EXACTLY my point! Why would the FBI/police/piggies whatever the **** you want to call them, send you an email saying they are out to get you? Seriously? I never knew they used email to talk in such ways. But anyway if someone such as yourself got in trouble like this, they would not email you! FACT! They would just come after you...


EDIT - Just went through some peoples post on this thread and seen one by you which said your account had been terminated. Which to me sounds like the email was real (but i still doubt it, very much). But your phisher could of just been reported by someone, i've seen a million phishers be terminated and **** all happened to the people who hosted them, at the end of the day, don't be scared! Be a man!

Peace

[buddhistgrandma]

Well, thanks guys, I'll let you know how it turns out.

I got the email from the webhost, not the fbi or piggies or whatever. Anyway, Thanks. I hoping I'm not that 1:1,000,000 that gets in trouble for it.

[Brainsick]

Good luck. You need it. If it was the site, and not the piggies who emailed you, then you could be in trouble. But as you all said; they might just ignore it.

Yaw, these people do it to scare you, if you where involved with the FBI you would get a letter, I have the exact letter you would get and well, get on msn and we will talk.

sounds like a 14 yr old sent it. if i were you i'd assume it were sent by some guy who was mad about losing his shit.

[buddhistgrandma]

I'm thinking nothings going to happen. If the FBI got a complaint from the webhost, my guess is that they wouldn't do jack. "Someone stealing virtual game accounts with no monetary value? Give me a break, I got better things to do"

[Iraq]

Hmmm try to catch rapists/murderers and theives, or try to catch wow scammers.

Hard choice for the local police, stay tuned to find out!

[Renzax]

my friend got a similar notice a few years back, phising for runescape accounts, nothing ever happened, if they havent shut down your website, its most likley a empty threat to do so.

[RobinLD]

Hmm after reading all the posts from here I have come up with a possible conclusion. Yes, someone got their account scammed but they had knowledge on how to send fake emails (Evil Page's for example).

They then sent an email to 000webhost to suspend your account. They then coincidently suspended your web page at the same time sending you that childish letter. Your letter says the UK POLICE... Living in the UK myself I dont think they're gonna investigate you if your living in the US.. So chin up and ignore it. If this does happen to be true (not likely) Then just act ignorant ftw

P.S The FBI don't exist in England... /boggle

Best Wishes.
