Sure - the ISP knows what phone number dials into their modems. Whether or not they'd disclose that to you is another matter entirely. If you raised enough fuss about it, I suppose they could always call the FBI or whoever handles hacking in your region of the world.

Still, I'm with The_Dude on this one: Exactly what do you mean by "hack my internet account" ?

I work in network security and haven't got the foggiest idea what they would do that would tip you off so that you'd be aware someone was trying to "hack your internet account"
