far Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 OK so have got a bit of a situation at work - someone has registered and booked to go on one of our conferences and now are denying they every did it, they registered from IP address: 194.176.105.55 Is there anyway I can track this in terms of geographic, ISP or data which can point to where they are from?

johnny g Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 From the check I did, that's in Sheffield, or routed through Sheffield. Don't pay too much attention though, as the external facing IP address I'm on shows up as somewhere Nice, France - but I'm in Blackpool/Lytham.

Stonkin Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 Also meant to say, the info i sent may also be the person who manages that block of IP addresses from BT, so cant totally rely on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlotte Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 but I'm in Blackpool/Lytham. My mum is from Lytham - FYI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
far Posted July 22, 2010 Author Share Posted July 22, 2010 thanks all - especially Stonkin for them details - so are we saying even though the IP address gives details of 'someone' that person might not be the actual user who booked the conference? Therefore having the IP address doesnt really pinpoint the individual? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonkin Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 In a way yes. Does the info i provided match any details of the person who made a booking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
