The person who stole my friend avatar, is entering Second Life with stolen avatar  "edowarrior2" and threatens to steal on  "Local and Private chat" , other avatars and also another owner of the club that manage.
Of the above are also present more witnesses, to which I invited  him to do, in turn, report to Linden.

Being l'avatar rubato del mio amico (edowarrior2) the Owner of unikosogno in PearlBeach, egli chiede beg Second Life Support to take prompt action to the person who stole thenick, and if possible to reverse the situations.

Thanks in advance & Best Regartds

I think there is a misunderstanding ...
And I apologize if I have not explained well ...
... people who stole the avatars have also changed the email, and reset functions and password reset does not work anymore ...
... is no longer possible to enter with quell'avatar and consequently can not even follow the regular procedures of complaint ...
(Sorry for the question: Do you know then if there is a mode to make this kind of report?)
.. Thanks again ...

Begin at Step #2.

Charolotte Caxton gave you the link to Linden Lab support. Your friend needs to submit a support ticket to Linden Lab.......no one here can help beyond the advice that has already been given.
It appears that your friend's account has be 100% compromised. That means that the person who took over your friend's account as already changed the password and email..........your friend cannot access the account anymore. Your friend cannot change the password once someone else has taken over the account (like what it appears has happened). Have your friend create another account and then have him/her submit the support ticket to LL. Give as much factual information as possible in the ticket. Linden Lab is the only one who can fix this problem.........they have methods for determining who is the rightful owner of the account so your friend must follow their instructions.
And just a note. An account that has been taken over by someone is an account that is no longer "yours" until the account is recovered by LL. Your friend is going to have to prove that he/she are the true owner of the account.........it may not be possible to do that to LL's satisfaction which means the account may be lost forever to your friend. If there is any payment method information that your friend placed on the account then it is imparitive that your friend notify the provider of that payment method (credit card, debit card or PayPal). The person who took the account over has complete access to that payment method and can spend a lot of real life money on your friend's behalf. There is a lot of personal information that can be gained by the theif........your friend needs to act quickly to protect him/herself. Both financial and personal safety is at stake.
And one last thing. The thief can only access anyone's account by gaining the password to the account. That's why it's so important to create strong, hard to guess or break passwords (and change those passwords regularly). Never give your password to anyone.......even your best most trusted friend in SL.
