As far as I know, it should only be possible for the moderators to see that.

No, that is not possible

Avatar of Nikprit

As far as I know the mods will not have access to that info at all, neither will members on here.

IP addresses change too, your service provider will likely to know it, but that is it.

I thought you required a court order for a IP address.

But I might be wrong about all of this - I often am.

Avatar of VirtualKnightJoakim

Not sure if all mods have access to that info, but certainly cheat detection team has.

No ordinary members have access or means to find out.

Avatar of Bilbo21

yes, it's possibly possible.  But most people can't and the location often isn't accurate.

Yes, you can get if you send an email to someone and ask them to click and they do click on your link.

So, as always, do not follow supicious links or open attachment from people who you do not know.

Note: the IP address may not be from the actual town you are in; but it is usually near by.

Of course it's possible, for those who know how to do it. Except if you use special browser to hide it.

But all this has nothing to do with chess.com...

The IP address will normaly be identified by a specific number, althoug the localization will be only approximative.

I think all schemes requires someone to send an email with a link to you? So just be carefull who you give your email to... and be carefull which links you click on in emails.

I think that people with the right knowledge can find your IP address, and perhaps more details.

But there are also ways you can hide your IP address.

I suggest that you make a call to your Internet Service Provider and ask them about those issues.

Btw, I've been sent two private messages recently from supposedly women who ask me my e-mail in order to send me their pics tongue.png 

Don't fall for such tricks, guys! Don't send any info, report them to the staff!

You can report to staff here:
https://support.chess.com/customer/portal/emails/new

Now, if someone told you to click on something like, say,
https://support.chesscom.com/
https://support.chess1.com/ 

Be suspicious!

Do not click on links which are mispelled and only looks like official links. Always be on guard with communication from people you do not know.

Exactly so. And I think that browsers that hide IP addresses are prohibited by most sites.
