A good mate of mine had his ebay account and paypal hacked. The bloke bought a fair few things including a $2,000 guitar. The idiot put his name and address to send the items to (The lad is from Croatia). So now my mate has where his name along with his address haha..What a numpty.
Anybody else had similar experiences? How did they turn out?

Could nothing be done if police were involved then? (I have no clue about these things)
