Question Posted Sunday September 13 2009, 8:15 pm

okay, so, somebody hacked my facebook and posted a bunch of random and really embarrasssing statuses. now, they made an AIM screenname that's almost exactly like mine, just changing one letter. if i have their screen name, and theyre on their computer, could i track down their IP address from there to find out who it is? or should I leave this to someone more experienced?

It would be illegal for you to do this, just as it was illegal for them to do what they did.

You need to make a new screenname, and a new Facebook. Tell everyone on your current Facebook that you got hacked, and give a link to your new one. Make a new e-mail as well, and make sure that your password contains both numbers AND letters because those are harder to do. I realize it'll take a while & it's a pain in the ass, but there's no other way to get around it besides this.

I don't know if you are already aware of this but hacking someones computer without their permission is illegal. Your best bet is to create another facebook and aim password, most people do not have a static IP address anyway, Yes, there are ways of getting around it but that you will have to google on your own as I will not paste anything that is showing or telling you how to do something that is illegal.
