I would lay odds that what really happened is your brother sold, or otherwise disposed of his computer, and left the disk drive in place with his GL account and password stored in the browser. The new owner of the computer thought he might have some fun, and bid on a truck... possibly not realizing (or caring) what he was really doing...
The only truly safe way to sell a computer is to remove the hard disk, and sledge hammer it. Most folks are not sophisticated enough to know how to wipe the drive properly.
See if you can find out who is attatched to the new e-mail account, call the cc company and let them know someone was attempting to steal that card # and go from there.
Dont know what to do
