Email Hijacked

Post by Riverwind (imported) »

My email has been hijacked, so if you get an email from me and its spam, it was not from me, I have changed my password and will monitor it.

Hi River,

I did get an email from you with a link to a pharmacy offering deals on Viagra. I knew it couldn't have come from you because I know you're aware of my female status. 😄

Yes, the other day, and I normally don't go there.

Thanks,

It can also happen if you are in the address book of someone whose computer gets hacked.

Happened to a friend of mine a couple of years ago and I still get occasional emails from myself offering Viagra.

I do not keep an address book on my PC for that reason.

If your were a user of the Unix News feeds, you email address is not hidden and the spammers got my email that way. I still get anywhere between 70-200 spams a day, luckily 99% of them end up in the spam bind :) and note 99% are from over seas.

I went up in a small plane with a hot little number one day and she gave me a "high jacking". However, I enjoyed it... :)

Then that Last Will and Testament you sent me leaving me all your worldly fortune really isn't valid?
