it is very easy to spoof an IP address as well so it would be pretty hard to catch them. If they are hacking her accounts I am pretty sure they know the basic ways to cover their tracks

That's why I think she should go after Mnet, going after hackers/netizens is a waste of money imho. Poor Ivy, wasn't she the one who had a sex tape leaked? with her manager or something.

no that was Baek Jiyoung but IVY had someone threaten her with a sex tape but I guess it was just someone making up lies
