How do you check where you are? I am confused?

This is what a company said yesterday:

Just checked mine and the IP is correct and the location.

It is so random - I have one account and no one else uses the same IP address here because I am the only adult in my household with access to a computer (my kids are too young and I am single). I have never had MSE linked to my name and none of my friends have MSE in their names either . My DOB linked to my address is correct, my mobile was up to date so I was able to verify when they asked me too. I am not a member of the winners circle and I regularly post non-comping comments and chat to friends about what's on the tv, what they are up to etc - so my wall is not just comps???? But now I have a 30 day ban!!! I can see my account but I cannot post on my wall or any other wall. I cannot send messages and I cannot like new pages!!!

I have friends who are avid compers and who still have their accounts and are continuing to like and share even now - and not just a few comps either?

This is all so random? There doesn't seem to be a pattern!? It couldn't possibly be caused by a single person who has a grudge against compers because it has happened to 1000s and they are not all compers or MSE users or members of the winners circle!

Basically, one of the verification methods (and it is the only option I am being offered) is that facebook show you a set of three pictures and ask you is this friend A, B, C, D or E and you have to pick who it is. This might be easy if it is a picture of say your next door neighbour, but is no so easy if it is a snapshot of say a beach. You get about five pages of pictures, each with about six possible friends that it could be. Most of my pictures have been things like a bottle of perfume, or a pair of shoes. i.e. competition prizes that any of my "friends" might have entered.

Hmm that's a bit annoying as the only verification method I keep getting offered is via a text message to a phone number that has not been in use for nearly 6 years!

First of all thanks DD for knocking into me and losing a whole two paragraphs about what I was saying.

Anyway if people are logged in elsewhere is someone accessing our accounts.

Ive just had a thought and it may be completely wrong, but all those who have had to verify, has your account been public? Mine was, but as I only used it for comping it didn't matter. No personal details were on there, just my name.

Mine was public - the only personal info about me for the public to see was my name and location

Mine is public, but email/D.O.B etc is set as private.
