Personally, when I note a possible abuse, I contact the account holder and
ask them if they need to sign up for additional access and inform them of
the multiple logins.
If they are incredulous, I try to persuade them to change the password and
reiterate that they should NOT give out their password. If it continues
then I sometimes stick in a static ip address and wait for a call
complaining about the connectivity, to which, I'll ask them which logs
they want to see regarding the multiple logins and ask them why it's still
happening. 8) Amazing when the hand is caught in the cookie jar they'll
often apologize and you won't see it happen again.
