    I can see an argument arising about 16 year old web hosting company owners/runners again....

    Whoever it is that has managed to use all Anthony's details sure as hell has a good way of finding out things..

    Must be someone generally close to anth and someone who dont use the computer much.. someone who managed to get to be his friend basically

    Ok. I must say English is not my first language, so please tell me what a charge-back is. Thanks.

    Second, I want to be sure I understand the story:

    A person (which I'll surely hit if I ever meet someday), has stolen the identity of a 16 yo boy in Australia to start a hosting company (Bright Light Websites). Now he closed everyting, and we all lost our money forever.

    Also, FL Admins seems to know that 16yo boy, and it can't be him.

    I'd like to know who you are cabalstudios, because you seem to be in the process of tracking the guy or I don't know.

    By the way, I'd suggest all people who were at Bright Light Websites to do like me and cancel their credit card. That's what I did two hours ago. It's free and and trouble-free. Anyway, at least call your credit card company.

    A charge-back is where someone gets their money back. Ring your bank

    Yes, I know him and I can assure you, Anthony Ziebell is now scared ****less because he thinks he will be in trouble for something he has no idea about what is going on - I have assured him he will be ok.

    Cablestudios is someone from e servers biz (the person acting as anth must have got servers from there).

    BTW - Just as I have told e servers biz,

    The business name "Bright Light Web Sites" was actually registered as Anthony Ziebell and his father. it was a small time venture, starting in 2000 which never actually got off the ground.

    it seems the person has managed to get all the info needed about the company and anthony, to assume full (well to an extent) identity.

    Wow I would have no idea - You wouldnt be able to get it back from Anthony himself - he is just a simple boy trying to live his life.. he was very scared when I explained to him that all his passwords must be changed as someone has been acting as him.

    I haven't a clue whats gone on here, from the way faculty spoke about his own DC etc I thought there may be chance he was in it for the long run

    Personally I find the whole identity theft thing a little far fetched but still.... onto the reason I'm posting:

    BLWS used the hostname 1337HOST.COM on servers (I know because I've recently transferred some accounts from there). Has anyone checked into the whois on this domain to see if it turns anything up?

    Hmm

    Well im 17 years old and I came home today to find all the sites i host under one of Brighlightwebsites reseller plans is down i thought this was normal cause he has downtime every once and awhile then i come here and see all this then i go to his site and it leads to some thing about searching the web. Anthony seemed like a pretty cool guy when i talked to him I was hosted under him for about 3 to 4 months and just cant believe all this is happening kind of odd in a way. And sure does suck a lot cause in the morning im gonna have a crap load people asking me what happened to thier sites.

    Joy Joy waits for a friday afternoon full of angry people.

    Oh god.. different address, but Anthony's BROTHERS name!

    Anthony's brother (only 14), would be lucky to know what a mouse and keyboard are!

    Daniel is a devision 1 footy player..




    Guess I better inform his brother that the person who has his brothers identity, is now moving into him.

    What kind of sicko tries to take a whole families identity up?

    Erm.. ok I am not faculty. Never have and never will be. I worked hard to get that design without ever seeing the blws site design. I thought my design was unique - guess I will have to pull it down before people start calling me a ripper.

    Quite true

    His site is almost the exact same as brightlightwebsites.com was and I dont think someone is stealing identies i just think some kid got in some trouble and now is trying to run away from it but yet he comes back to it and trys to cover up under another name but see he trys to cover up to much and looks mighty suspicious.
