Thread: WARNING! I'VE BEEN HACKED!!

damm, your email said you were giving me $1,000,000

How do we know this isn't the hacker posting now? Luring us into a false sense of security!! Let me ask you this Dave - do you like shoes? Only then will we know who's really posting!

P.S. Being hacked is annoying. Time to change password and do a virus/spyware scan of your PC.

Eevo, nah mate, that offer is legit. ;-)

Judo, the REAL dave def don't care to much for footware.
Ranga canverify that i gorged on masterfully cooked scotch fillet on the Bushcraft weekend. ;-)

Seems to bea spam bot, pita but could be worse (good luck/bad luck, who knows)
Thanks, Dave.

My apologies dave, but that was me.
You see, I am actually a Nigerian prince, in need of your help.
I accessed your email account to send news of my plight to trusted individuals, who can help me bring my massive fortune to your country, and will be handsomely rewarded.
To not include you would be rude, so I sent the email to you too.
Sincerely.
Nigerian Prince 100% Legit A.K.A Muppet

Seriously though, best of luck sorting it out

Thanks Dave...

Spotted the email, deleted

I went through this crap last year.My hotmail ac was hacked.
You soon find out all the old email address that you had forgotten about

Old addresses, NOT WRONG!
The only hint of what was happening wasthe message to myself(an altenate address) and 38 Delivery failure reports! :-/

Cheers, Dave

Just a quick point Dave. Getting a message from yourself doesn't necessarily mean you have been hacked. A spammer can send a message as whoever they like to whoever they like. Usually its an automated spamming script using a list of email addresses harvested from someone's address book. They have to find a friendly email server on the internet somewhere to to send the spam. Odds are they are nowhere near your computer. But then again, they could have their slimey tentacles all through your computer right now....
