I would have someone investigate it. If that means you have to press charges, I would. That's ridiculous.
How did you know that 'the IP' was from his town? Where did you get that information from?
And yes, you can contact the police and he will be charged, if it is him.
@BerryBerry: Oh while I was changing one of the passwords/email on something (ebay i think) they displayed who last changed it.
Change ALL your passwords to something he will never guess. Add numbers to them so he'll have a hard time figuing it out. You have to keep him out of your stuff!
And yes, talk to the police. If he did it then it is a criminal offense. I don't think he's hacked your computer, but he has managed to get into your ebay account by guessing your password. It's still illegal, plus it's harassment.
Even if it's not him, it's worth getting investigated in case it's someone else messing about with identity fraud.
If you don't want to involve police, just change all your passwords, change your IP address (your internet service provider can help you there) and get your husband to go kick his a**.
@ThePrincessMaggie: I would.
I had an issue similar to this when I was in college and went to the campus police (as it was their jurisdiction technically) and got it all sorted out. It was scary. Plus, if it's not him it's someone else that is doing something they shouldn't be.
Ewwww that's so creepy!! I would totally report to somebody..the police? I would definitely say to change everything to something that's unguessable for sure!! That is so weird..
On top of changing your passwords, answer those "security questions" with things that aren't the real answers, that only you would remember. That way he can't get your passwords via the "forgotten passwords" functions. I'm sorry this is happening to you-- I hope you get it sorted ASAP!
Thanks everybody. I did change all my passwords and stuff to even harder ones (I had decent ones already).
Unfortunately DH can't do anything right now because he's at Navy basic training :( 7ish more weeks
Okay I'm bumping this because you bees have suggested I involve the police. I don't know if it's worth it because he is family and it would just break the family up (if it's him) and I would cause "strife" in the family just like he said that I would before I married DH...even though he would be the one harassing me, everything would get blamed on me. I know this because after I started dating DH (awhile after the ex dumped ME) the ex's mother started posting mean things on my facebook through her daughter's account. And all of our mutual friends turned on me and I do not talk to them this day.
I get that it sucks that I started dating your cousin, but it wasn't immediately after you broke up with me and, oh yeah YOU BROkE UP WITH ME.
Why does everyone just take his side even though he is the one giving me trouble?
I didn't want to mention this, but he was texting me one night telling me what a horrible person I was and that I should die so I tried to overdose. I was in the hospital for about a week.
I just want him to leave me alone and get over it.... :(
@ThePrincessMaggie: Clearly there is already "strife" in the family. I wouldn't give a crap about it. As long as your DH is on the same page as you, I'd call the police. Harrassment is not okay and this guy needs to get a grip! He needs help!
He's harrassing you. Do you still have the text? Keep records of all this stuff. This family already sounds like a piece of work. Your wellbeing is more important than worrying about people who aren't worth it.
Why would you want poisonous people like that in your life? Seriously -- if they're going to choose him (a crazed stalker) over you, then who cares?!
Maybe that's just me, though. But seriously, stalking can get seriously violent seriously fast. I'd report it to the police.
I agree. It sounds like the family already knows the situation and has made up their mind how they feel about it. Right now your priority needs to be taking care of you and getting your ex to get the heck away. Report him to the police. Gather as much evidence as you can.
If he's accessing your account and changing information on Ebay, he can face federal charges. File a police report.

@Pinksapphire: I won't know if DH is on the same page until he gets to call me or he responds to me letters (can be weeks) :(
@abirdword: no it was soon after it happened, two years ago, it's not even on the phone I have now.
@Jenniphyr: Well I have him blocked everyway I can (phone, social networking sites, etsy), I DON'T want him in my life. He is not in my life. I didn't go to family Christmas so I wouldn't have to see him and frankly I don't think I ever will go if he is going to be there.
@bakerella: I was in such a panic, I don't have much evidence because I changed everything. But I have the email that says they joined snapfish and can't access the IP anymore, so I'm not sure what the whole thing is, just the first three numbers. I worry that it wouldn't be enough to file a report or anything.
Double post (without even hitting the "submit" button twice...awesome!).
@ThePrincessMaggie: I didn't mean you wanted your ex in your life. I meant that you said you didn't want to report it to police because it would "tear the family apart". If they choose him over you, why would you want them in your life? They're obviously not very supportive.
@Jenniphyr: yeah, I read it wrong I am just so upset, sorry. I can't just not deal with his entire family because I married DH. Even if my ex won't be at events, the family will. I can't not go to all the family events and do that to DH. I don't consider them in my life anyways, except DH's mom and grandma and sister. Ex's mom was invited to the wedding because DH's mom wanted her there, but I did not talk to her.
I don't really know how to explain the situation to you and I don't know what your situation is like or what you perceive as okay or normal.
Bottom line: I don't want them in my life but they have to be because of my marriage. For DH.
@ThePrincessMaggie: I am sorry that you're in such a difficult situation -- I really do sympathize. I just think that your DH would probably rather have you (his wife) be safe than maintain a relationship that is already poisonous for both of you. I do understand the importance of family. I'm just angry & scared for you in this situation. Sorry if I come across as derogatory; I understand the difficulty. I'm just frustrated with your DH/ex's family.
@Jenniphyr: Oh well, thank you. I appreciate your concern. I wish I could talk to DH about this and see what he thinks :(
Honestly? Even if you don't get the chance to talk to your husband for a little while, I'd file a report with the police. Even though you may have a suspision that it is your ex it could very well be someone else and the longer you hold off on investigating the worse the situation could get.
If the policy find out it is your ex, you can then discuss it with your husband as far as how to proceed. But I would definately let him know in the meantime that something is going on.
Don't allow yourself to be the victim. If this guy is crazy enough to sign you up for snapfish, who's to say he's not signing you up for a bunch of credit cards?
Go to the courthouse and file a restraining order. It extends to the internet and him trying to add you on social media. If he does, he goes straight to jail.
I really appreciate all of your responses.
I don't really know what to say, because I talked to my parents last night about it and they want me to wait until if something else happens, and they are worried that my ex will get even crazier if we do something.
I really don't have much proof, either.
With that said, we are taking extra precautions online and in real life (having doors locked always, etc.)
Yeah, I'm scared of what he could do. But I am also afraid of alienating DH's family. Even DH's mom, who I am fairly close with, didn't stand up for me or take my side in the past, because the ex is her nephew. This family really believes that you have to be on the side of your family member, no matter what. I just couldn't stand if they all hated me, and DH wouldn't like it either. He always wants me to go to family things with him and gets upset if I don't. He wants me to get along with his family. It's important to him.
I don't want to have to go to the police.
Again, thank you everyone.
I would definately have someone investigate and also speak to your hubby - you don't want to press charges and have him upset because at the end of the day it is his family. But I'd definately do something and fast!
Go to the police so you have a file started because this is going to happen again and you need to have this documented. Say you're not 100% sure it's him but that you think it may be him bec of the answers that needed to be given on your accounts. Then next time they can have this dated in the file.

Long story short: boy meets girl, boy falls in love but dumps the girl and the girl ends up marrying his cousin.
This is why my ex hates me and isn't over me and still talks about me and tries to get ahold of me.
Today I got an email that a snapfish account had been created and I didn't make it. I tried to get the account deleted and customer service said it was, but it's not. They were not much help.
I discovered also my ebay was totally changed, number one being my email address. I went through the questions you have to answer to change it and they were hard and only people who were close to me would know.
The Ip is from his town.
I think it's him?!
Previously he has cyberharassed me through etsy and cyberstalks me, adding me at all social networking sites.
SIL thinks I should maybe press charges? I don't know if that is possible.
Ughh
