can someone gain your cellphone number from an ip address??


Question Posted Monday September 22 2014, 8:48 pm

Long story short, I have recently recieved word on kik messenger that someone had gotten my ip adress and knows what city I live in. Ive been so paranoid about it for the last week or so, but felt better when he stoped messaging me after informing me he knew my city. Just today, I received an unknown text message with a link to a picture and the words "It Exists" with a happy face, a fucking happy face. Is it possible that my ip address gave him my cell phone number?? I didnt click on the link, nor open the text, as Ive been told that people can send you a link that will give them your personal inormation. Im teriffied to open it. Should I open it, and what are the possibilities of it being the same man?

DO NOT OPEN IT! i can not stress enough that if your feeling this paranoid after a week and then you get this message you need to go to the police and let them trace who sent it to you. I do not want to panic you but please go to the police for your own safety and for your families protection.

Hope it gets sorted
