Lay a charge with the cops, your ISP should be able to identify the port that the account is logging in from and this can be handed to fraud division at Telkom.

ye Telkom can check what line your username was used on ( as well as time, date, how many times he connected, how much of your cap he used and his address... )all hackers are warned
[edit] and yes the telephone number too [/edit]

apparently Telkom/SAIX don't care, and they say it's the person's fault for not having better router security.

Your isp can give you details (dates, times, number logons, line number (not telephoneno) etc) then you have to lay a charge at SAPS and they must subpoena Telkom to get landline number and address.

I have a friend who runs a business from home, but he also rents out rooms. He has ADSL and has the policy of if his tennants have their own account they may use it.

Anyhow a few months back he received a call from some Telkom inspector telling him that it seems someone had been using illegal accounts on his line. He told them that he runs a digs and he has no control over who uses which account, and that it wasn't him personally.

I think they actually bothered with him because he was registered as a business. But that was the last he heard from them...

Is it realy worth it all..... :confused:
in RSA where we are restricted to meaningless 3gig caps, i feel that if you steal someone’s bandwidth you deserve some time.

[edit] when u are in prison and you are a good looking fellow, tell them that you were born on a poor farm and all you had to eat was glass... [/edit]

Just change your account password and your router password. Unless you want to go the route of contacting the telkom fraud division and then undergo the torment of having to further deal with telkom, only this time as someone who isn't paying them an enormous sum of money to get the job done.
