    Hackers and VPNs


    Hi great people of Windows 10 forums! I'm not sure where to post this or even if this is the right site so please let me know if I need to move it.

    3 times I have received emails from hackers using the same sets of IP addresses and it's getting frustrating. They are all obvious scams and they never get any money and as far as I know they haven't gained access to any personal information but I want to find out exactly who is doing this. Each time it is a different email address and a different scam but they use the same IP addresses that I believe are VPNs. Is there any way to find out who it is and what steps do I take? If you need the IP addresses I have found I can post them but for now I would like to keep them to myself. Thanks in advance!

    There is no way to find out and tbh I'm not sure what good it would do you.

    Just delete the emails and move on.

Hi. I've been experimenting with a free VPN and have found that it's very difficult, if not impossible, to download files from the likes of zippyshare, depositfiles etc. Would this still be a problem with a paid VPN?
