You may submit an Abuse Report.  Here's how >>> http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Filing-an-abuse-report/ta-p/700065

An effective abuse report includes as much factual detail (not speculation) as you can provide.  It helps to have chat or IM transcripts, photos, or other information that Linden Lab can use to verify your claim and to start their own investigation.  Linden Lab will send you an e-mail to acknowledge your AR but will never tell you anything about the outcome of their investigation.

If you believe that your account has been compromised....

Your account may have been compromised if:

• You can't access your account.
• You suddenly notice a reduced available balance on the payment source you have on file.

If this happens, contact us immediately!

Here's what to do:

1. Go to the Second LIfe Help page and log in if you can. If you can't access your account, use the Forgot your login information? link on the right to recover your username and reset your password. Then log in.
2. On the Second LIfe Help page page, click the Contact Support link on the right.
3. On the next page, click Submit a a Support Case form.
4. Under What type of problem are you having?, select Account Issue. A second dropdown appears.
5. Under Account Issue, select I believe my account has been compromised.
6. Fill in the rest of the fields as directed.
7. Click Submit.
8. Check your email for your case number.
9. Call our fraud number: .

Once you do this, Linden Lab will place your account on hold and investigate the relevant transactions. This may take a few days. Once we have concluded the investigation, we'll send you an email explaining our conclusion and the action we will take. Note that all transactions involving Linden dollars are subject to Linden Lab's Terms of Service.

Tip: Even if you are able to log into your account, we recommend that you change your password immediately to something secure and unique.  Changing your password regularly is one good way to protect the safety of your account.  For information on how to change your password, see the How to change your password section of this article.

Hi

if some one told you in game that they are going to hack you, use the AR to report the avatar using there text in the report.

if you do not know who going to hack you, then do take care, do not give out real life information in game or at forums, also do not tell people what system you are using, ie: your computer name what its running.

this is the key that hacker need to make things easyer for them to hack your system.

if it some one in the real world that you know, you can report them to the police.

in my country its against the law to hack or send sicko messages on the wire.

hope thats of help

becareful and do not give out your information, and last change your passwords.

good luck

byee
