With just an email account that's already logged in, no.
All you know is the email address, even though you're logged in you don't know the password to the email, account name, previous passwords, IP address etc.
You can't do much with it at all.

Dont even think of anything, and dont be a dick. Its not your account and its definitely not worth it.

Have the decency not even to attempt anything man, how would you feel if someone did this to your account?
it would not make you feel good, so dont do it.

Could you possible recover the account?
Yes.

Should you?
Up to you.

What would I do?
Forget about it and hope there was 500m on the account. Respect the person, most electronics sold at pawnshops are stolen, just because someone's ipod was stolen doesn't mean you should add insult to injury and steal their runescape account.

If you have the email you can get the password automatically if the email is registered what you do is up to you.

"God save people, who save theirselves''
That would be lesson to seller how to be safe and make double check, but you still would be a thief.
Recently lost 15mil cause went to toilet to take sh*t and left AFK near Hati :(
Blaming just myself.

Just think of this situation as a test, and the decision you will make will represent/show the way you are.

Be Smart.

Did you at least look at the adv log to see if it was a decent account?

Lol, good choice man.

Kind of random that you would find an ipod with an Rs e-mail though… Not exactly likely to happen.

Glad to see you did the right thing. Getting hacked and looted is one thing but getting your account stolen is on another level.
