Question for Punch Job

Punchjob's headers (Path & NPH) show that he posts to the EL newsserver with an IP named (x).Dial1.Atlanta1.Level3.net which level3 dialups access for EL (and others). The EL newsserver not only requires a logon, but also for the IP connecting to be part of the EL 'family'.

Are you practicing to become an identity sleuth?

Your headers show that you post to a prodigy/yahoo.sbc.com newsserver with an IP rDNS named (x).dsl.austtx.swbell.net which looks a lot like Austin, TX DSL connectivity.

Newsservers can be chosen which don't provide that NPH NNTP-Posting-Host header information about the posting IP address, which IP on dynamics often has a geographically (and sometimes connectivity type) useful rDNS. Geography from the IP isn't always accurate/correct.

I am trying to show Punch Job that with a little information, an identity thief can go a long way. That is why I don't volunteer any more personal info than necessary.

Nope not even close.

Just one question for you:

Have you always been a f***in loser with nothing better to do than ask stupid questions?

Thanks.

Youre a f***in genius. Now all you gotta do is find a credit application that wants to know an isp I use once in awhile and a f***in city Ive never lived anywhere near and you got it made. Least until my credit monitoring service reports an inquiry and I get the address the card was supposed to go to and set up a little surprise there for whoever shows up to get the f***in thing.
