Post Virgin Spoofed my MAC address !

A couple of months ago i was having some serious issues with my internet connection and found out that someone had somehow gotten hold of my IP address, i tried in vain to prevent the hacking going on, on my PC but in the end i had to get in touch with Virgin told them what was going on and they put me up ot a higher level within their departments, i was then instructed by this Indian guy on everything what to do which i did, a couple of days later i had another problem, so, phoned them back up, and i was speaking to this other guy from their Sheffield HQ, he asked me what had been going on, i then told him everything, and when i told him what the Indian guy had done, he was none to happy and said he would have to report the matter because, and that is when i found out that i had, had my MAC address spoofed by the Indian guy and the guy was astounded that this had happened.
So this is my question : Is this the done thing and was this legal what had been done, i am totally confused and have been for some month's now as i have had mixed comments on this subject !
Any comments would be appreciated !
Thankyou !
