Default Re: Fossilman\'s Stars Account Hacked?

I would think Greg's only legal recourse at this point would be to refer the matter to prosecutors in Costa Rica, in the hope that they:

1) would be interested in pursuing,
2) could get a Costa Rican judge to issue a subpoena forcing Stars to give up the IP address, and
3) could coordinate with US prosecutors.

The US prosecutors would in turn have to:

4) be interested in pursuing,
5) get a subpoena forcing the ISP to give up the name and address behind the IP address and
6) pursue the guy, who might be in a different state from the ISP.

That's a lot of hoping. But I'm not a criminal lawyer and don't know what I'm talking about.
