Is this supposed to be a hoax?
Just tried my home Internet, static IP, secure WiFi, in COVID lockdown, so no visitors.
Myself and my wife only (besides a toddler and baby). Wife doesn't normally use a computer (just mobile) and has no clue how to torrent. Site claims we torrented some MP3 three days ago; I had to Google the name of the artist.
If it's not a hoax then my best bet is some seriously impressive JS malware on a site my wife visited.
Does seem extraordinarily unlikely though.
- gtirloni 6y agoIt's based on IP addresses. If your ISP recycles yours, it could very well be another customer that got your current IP days ago.
- Benjamin_Dobell 6y agoI said static IP in my comment above, although that's not quite accurate. They're "sticky" IP addresses so don't normally change. No CGNAT either, but there was downtime a couple of days ago. I suppose my IP could have changed, as I've made no attempt to remember it. I think I'll actually follow up with my ISP. Cause if there is some rogue software/hardware on my network I'd love to know about it!
