wrestlingkaratechamp Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 I have aim and for the past couple of weeks I have been getting these IMs from a person who I don't know. I ask this person who he/she is and he contiues saying stuff. This is not a normal person whos just playing around. He knows an extensive amount of information about my family and members who have been dead for many years. I block this person but they come back with a new sn. I find myself getting kinda.....shakey when this person IMs me. I mean I go to a rought school and I don't fear anyone but the presence of this person knowing this much about my family is kinda strange. He refers to dead family members as if they are still alive. I am extremely extremely smart (1590 on SAT) and when it comes to mind games with this person I feel......lost,confused and filled with rage. I have made a list of who this person could be........No one in my family would say this kinda stuff. But they would know some of the information (IE:in depth stories that my grndfather told me when I was very young about Bastone and WW2). Someone that wanted to mess with me it could be but they wouldn't know 1/100 of the information this person is telling me. I have no real enimies in school. I'm cool with many many people and alot of people know me because I play football and I'm a wrestler for my school. Its possible that a kid in my school who may not like me for being smart and having alot of friends would be saying stuff but there is no POSSIBLE way that they would know this much even if they studied my family for years. I have no drunken uncle or phyco aunt who would do this stuff. I have a normal family. This person knows stuff about my girlfriend also. Private stuff that no one in the world knows but her and I. But then again,shes not a phyco. She wouldn't be doing this. SHE doesn't even know ANY of the information that this person has been saying. ACTUALLY........THE ONLY PERSON IN THE WORLD THAT WOULD KNOW THIS STUF IS.......MY GRANDFATHER HIMSELF. But he has been dead for a long time. All my grandparents are dead. My mom wouldn't even know exact words my grandfather said. But its beond that. Not just my grandfather. This stuff is not writen down,as I said before dates that are special between my girlfriend and I are notwriten down in a diary or something that people could steal. Besides my grandfather who is dead I AM the only person in the world who knows this stuff. Its like talking to myself in some weird way. That was until this afternoon. When my brother recieved an IM from an unknown source. I have a feeling that this is the same person. How does he know this stuff? HOW? WHY? I'm at a lost for words. The question I am porposing to you people is this.......What should I do? I don't think that this person means harm in some sick perverted way. I don't find myself wanting to hurt this person for saying stuff,I find myself wanting to know HOW. HOW did this person manage to get this information. What do they want with me?

Tombstone Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 Thats some freaky stuff. Set your AIM setup to where only people on your buddy list can IM you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkeygirl Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 You might be able to contact someone at AOL. They don't want their members to be harrassed, and might be able to do something about it. Write down his SN and see where you get with AOL. Who knows what kind of results you'll get, though...there are so many jerks on AIM that their staff could have their hands full. That doesn't mean you shouldn't give it a shot, though. 1st dan & Asst. Instructor TKD 2000-2003No matter the tune...if you can rock it, rock it hard.

Darce Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 That sounds kind of strange. I don´t know what I´d do if someone did this to me. Maybe I´d just stop reading his messages. Shukokai Karate, Orange belt ( 7. kyu) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WomanInBlack Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 Seems like your gf is playing you, or someone is. Don't be so naiive. And monkeygirl AOL has more to deal with then some teenager being played a fool. I mean really! They are going to tell you what I am telling you now. Get a new screen name and don't let anyone know for a while then reintroduce it each day to another person on your list and see what happens. Maybe spend less time on the computer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrestlingkaratechamp Posted September 24, 2003 Author Share Posted September 24, 2003 yeah if my girlfriend was playing this as a joke then how in the world would she find information about my grandfather who I rarely speak about? Thats impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of Fighters Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 Just a question, do you ever go to parties and get drunk or anything like that? Because maybe you were all pissed up and told a bunch people (or the person who hates you and wants to freak you out) about some of these things, and they could have found out from you. Personally i reccomend you find out who it is anyway you can, maybe ask if you could meet with the person (and bring protection with you) or ask who they are, or find out their ip adress. If you dont find out who they are after a few weeks or they really creep you out, i suggest that you board up all of your windows and doors, buy a shotgun and never leave your home.

mouko_yamamoto Posted September 25, 2003 Share Posted September 25, 2003 If you are good with computers and social engineering you could get your IP as K.o.F. said. But that takes time to learn. The hacking part anyway. Tombstone also had a good idea, about only buddies can talk to you.

wrestlingkaratechamp Posted September 25, 2003 Author Share Posted September 25, 2003 I don't recall getting hardcore drunk lately king of fighters...........but the meating him sounds like I could do that. Bring a clear mind and some maze and something and meet in a public place and have a lookout person in the area that this person is not familiar with. IE:not my brother because this person seems to know stuff about him. I could do that. but this person seems like he hates me. I can't sit at a table and sip hot chocolate with a person the could possible shoot me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
