I got an email the other day from one of my online hang outs saying I was banned for password scamming. Until I got this email, nothing seemed wrong with my account (no spam messages, admin emails etc). I emailed the admis asking what exactly was going on, as I figured if I got hacked the information would be usefull in helping me prevent this happening to other online accounts. I keep getting the run around though. I let them know the last time I logged on myself as they asked for that information as well as my username...the only reply I got back was that I was banned. I KNEW this! I want to know what exactly happened though. I sent them an email re-itterating this and also told them that I thought I deserved some explination as I have donated money to this site in the past. I read the terms of service carefully, and according to them they can delete/ban an account for any or no reason. They said in thier email that password scamming is a direct TOS violation and is an imidiate ban offense but the funny thing is is that there is no mention of password scamming in the TOS whatsoever. The only password things they mention is that if your password is compromised its YOUR responsibility to fix it, not thiers.
I'm gussing because thier TOS says they can ban/delete for no reason that they legally don't have to explain anything and can just ban my account and take the money I've already paid them. I was wondering though, if there was any way I can at least make them take everything assoiciated with my account off of thier servers as I have links to my music site and my myspace page on my profile. I don't want who/whatever is messing with my account to start messing with my other internet accounts too and right now I can't log in to delete anything.
Any advice would be helpful! Also, if something odd starts happening with my account here, I would appriciate it if anyone notices to email me and PM Karen about it. Anything odd at all, I don't care how minor it is. Don't be afraid about bugging me, I'm trying to get to the bottom of this. Hopefully this is just an isolated thing but it never hurts to be too careful!
