daily life: campaign to stop identity theft...

... of me!

I have a pretty strong online identity, and people that know me are aware of my username across multiple sites (which I'm not going to post here for obvious reasons).
But many years ago I noticed someperson(s) or organisation trying to steal this identity as a flurry of accounts were opened up with my username and lay dormant for years.
Today I discovered that Twitter joined that list as somebody setup a Twitter account in 2009 with that username and to this date has not made a single tweet or even followed the inane tweeting of Jay-Z or Kanye West.

Fortunately I was able to procure most accounts prior to this process beginning, but I still get annoyed by failing to procure it for GMail even though I was beta testing it at the time.

One day I will track down the individuals responsible for this and punish them accordingly. So I give you fair warning, even though you won't actually find this blog because you stole my gmail account.

Plus, some wang on Xbox Live decided to copy my avatar to, I keep running into the little sod.
