Apparently my gmail account was hacked at some point in the last day or so. If you've received spam that apparently came from me I'm sorry... I've changed the password, hope I've fixed the problem. |

Thats also going down alot on facebook, use a complicated password that i use like;
gorgeousnhot@44
The hacks are figuring out names and hobbies as such for passwords, try; NYT%%^^$##@990 and stuff like that. _________________ A.K.A Chappy. |

I saw that Bill - your email account made a proposition to me that I was certain that you wouldnt have made!
I tried to call you but it went straight to voicemail so like a bad friend, I didnt leave you voicemail! _________________ Emmons Legrande III SD10

My apologies to all.
Don, I have no idea what was sent, but based on some of the 'responses' I've gotten from folks that don't know me it must be 'not good'. If you get any other spam, please let me know...
Yeah Larry, my passwords are always pretty strong, habit from being forced to do that at the day gig, but I think the gmail password was a little more crackable.. Not now. |

Hey Bill, I see you made it back from Madrid, Spain ok. Now when are you going to pay back that $20,000 I sent you to get you home? LOl!!
There was a couple other hack-mails that arrived with yours. I can't believe they are still using the "stranded in a foriegn country" line of crap. _________________ "Good judgement comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgement"~old cowboy proverb.

See if you have special fonts in your email program. I can't get one to copy here on the Forum, but you can mix all kindsa strange stuff together.
That might take a while to figure out for a spammer! |
