How to find the ip address of yahoo mail?

Can you find someones E-mail address with their IP address?

  • My Yahoo account was just recently hacked but I was able to change my password and I also found out my attackers IP address and used it to find his location, hostname, and ISP but what I really want to know is his e-mail address so I can give him a piece of my mind. P.S. Are there any other precautionary measure I shoud take to ensure this doesn't happen again

  • Answer:

    no, the only ways to get someones email address is one of three methods 1, they give3 it to you 2. they sign up somewhere and its displayed publicly 3. its within the header information of any email they send you you 'may' be able to guess the last part of their address based on their isp for example @virgin.com but there is no way for you to know the first part. The best thing to ensure it does not happen again is to use a very secure password, you can generate them online if you wanted to in places like this http://strongpasswordgenerator.com/

Anyone that is good enough to hack into a yahoo account (unless you had a stupid password) would almost certainly have used an internet anonymiser so that even the ip address you have for this person most likely would have been disguised. Just use a much better password and keep the account free from chat rooms (unless you use a 3rd party host that allows you to 'ghost' your id

possibly. if you have there external IP address then you can go to a website to find all about them. possibly even an email address. http://ip-lookup.net/ <---- just type the IP address in here and see how you go. thank you.

One word of caution: Competent hackers go to extreme lengths to hide themselves, and your flaming a mail addy may end up going to someone unrelated to the hack...and then you would be in hot water. Maybe fo'getaboutit, and move on.

Nothing is impossible. If you know someone has a specified IP address and you can hack into their system, of courre then you can stole much information of theirs including e-mail address.
