So I tried contacting the block chain guys, thought they could just freeze the wallet, this is what they had to say

you seem to be misunderstanding what blockchain.info is or does

besides it would be the end of bitcoin if such a thing were possible

only the owner of the private key can have access to the coins period

Yeah I know, just throwing random tries wherevwr possible if anyhow by any means to help out the situation. However don't you think blockchain would have your private keys if at all you have an account with them? I mean for validation purposes they will surely have to match the login details from the server?

if you mean blockchain.info wallet - no, they don't have access to your private key, it's encrypted with your password and gets decrypted only in your browser

it's unsafe and prone to browser exploits but that's another story

Master-P seems to have used armory and may have used blockchain.info only to broadcast txs so this wouldn't apply to him/her anyway
