Anyone know how to track this IP address?

I have gotten it this far but havent the slightest idea what it says in line 17.

Fitlering ICMP traffic on that hop, probably a home router dropping the packets, etc.

Edit - or the computer/router/whatever that has that IP leased isn't turned on at the moment.

HD,

So the IP address is no good or fake?

This is coming from someone trying to scam me. Caught them and have not paid a penny but trying to find out where its coming from. It was supposed to be a Yahoo email address but keep seeing other IP addresses. Its being sent out of an email program called "The Bat!"

Thx,

Joe A

The Bat is a windows email client...

Address is in a pool of dynamic addresses. I just ran nmap on it (port scanner), looks like it is hooked up directly to a windows box with no router/firewall/etc. running.

Joe, its a real address.

Joe, there are certain *ahem* actions that could be taken, but seeing as that they are on Comcast, we may have the wrong IP. In other words, they use dynamic addresses, and we may end up targeting the wrong person.

What is this joker trying to do?

Will email you directly.

Oh really.....?????

This could be fun. How pissed are you at these folks Joe?

Icemaster - note that the address is in a dhcp pool, and my scan didn't show 25 or 110 open like harddrive's did... different computer now. No need to mess up some poor granny's collection of pix of her grandkids...

Quite a bit!

Trying to scam me out of $3000. I figured it out early but would love to turn these jerks into the law.

Yeah, your right. Just did a line by line read on it. If "something" was gonna happen, we probably missed our window of opportunity.

Best thing at this point would be to make Comcast aware of it.

Not that that would do much...

Joe that bad finally??

My latest nmap scan also shows a port 25 .... I doubt that grandma has an SMTP server setup .... doing a -p- also

Jordi,

Nothing new but the request to help by sending $3k came through a few days ago. I have not responded to it but would love to send them to jail or at least get them stopped from trying to screw people on the internet.

You told me the story on Monday over dinner ... sad, very sad ...

I think that the IP address still good, based in Florida (Lady Lake ?)

That the city, but that does not say much. The subnet is probably only handed out locally. Of course the only real way to tell is get in and do some snooping....which I am not doing from my home IP address this evening thank you :D.

Let me do some.....adventuring, tomorrow.

Thanks guys.

HardDrive .... Cain & Abel ARP functions??
