    Hey guys My Email was hacked the other day and a dude tried to Spend about 700 euro but when you try spend money on my credit card it asks me am i sure on my mobile so he didnt get anything but i would like to Get him back i googled his email and found he uses it for buying and selling stolen accounts he also tried to get my younger brother and my dads emails.
    What i want to do now is Spam him.....LOTS has anybody got any ideas how to do it because if he uses this email for his business i want to disrupt it as much as i can. Thanks in advance.....Mods if this isnt the right place sorry :D

    Thats the wrong thing to do. You should report the incident to the Gardai, give them all the information you have and leave it at that. Trying to get revenge by spamming him is illegal and won't actually do anything.

    The first thing i would do is change your email password and if you believe that he has your credit card details you should notify your bank. It would be a good idea to change all your passwords and run a virus scan on your computer. Unless you need it for a reason i would turn off universal pnp on your router and check your firewall. Download and run malware bytes to check for other rogue software,

    What credit card offers you that service, sounds like a good idea for occasionally used cards.

    As mentioned before. Call Gardai. If you have proof of the attack and the following incidents you have a case.

    Don't try to fight fire with fire. Especially when it comes to "hackers". If they're more tech savvy than you you might end up losing more than you think. Also, I'm guessing here, but your email accounts might have very simple passwords. Try not to use the same password across multiple accounts and use upper\lower\special characters (like asterisk or the @ symbol) and numbers to make it as tricky as possible.

    Either install a third party firewall or use the in-built windows one and have a decent anti-virus.
