You might have heard the story of 1000’s of Hotmail Accounts have been hacked, Google

accounts were the victims of Phishing Scheme etc and you just ignored it!

Tomorrow when your friend calls you and ask why you are sending emails with links to Russian

sites for Viagra, you might be wondering what the heck is happening!Bad guys are on your PC or Email account.

1.Your email account has been compromised:
Change your password to a Strong One.What is a strong password. I will copy&paste what Microsoft reckons a strong password is.
“An ideal password is long and has letters, punctuation, symbols, and numbers.
Whenever possible, use at least 14 characters or more. The greater the variety of characters in your password, the better. Use the entire keyboard, not just the letters and characters you use or see most often.”
But if you are paranoid follow security expert Steve Gibson at https://www.grc.com/passwords.htm


2. If you have recently changed the password and new password is a strong one, then you may have some spyware, malware or a keylogger installed on your computer allowing them to get new password.Make sure that the Antivirus is updated and run a full scan. In the worst case scenario, format and reinstall. BEFORE YOU DO THIS MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE ALL THE DATA(files,email,contacts) BACKED-UP.

3.Your email has NOT been hacked, but that your email address is being “spoofed.”

If you google you can find different ways of dealing with it. To me …Nothing much you can do about it…My advise is.. JUST DELETE THE ACCOUNT AND CREATE A NEW ONE.
