Ideas for Scratch Team to find hackers...

... (If this shouldn't be posted either edit/delete it, I just saw a project of someone getting hacked, and I thought why not give a quick idea on how to track down hackers.)

Check IPs if there is a IP that the account was not made on then find that users IP and poof we know who the hacker is. But ask the user for any info if they worked on another computer with a different IP. But if the same IP is being used then they're faking.

Re: Ideas for Scratch Team to find hackers...

You can't really hack in to people's accounts on scratch. You can guess people's passwords or look over their shoulder while they are typing. IPs are not a very good way to track people since they are so easy to change.
