Ive Been Hacked!

[glassjaw]

i think my email address has been hacked. Well....no....im POSITIVE its been hacked. ive gotten 2 emails from my own email address that i know i havent sent. is there any way for me to figure out where these emails are coming from? any help would be appreciated. thank you.

You probably have a virus.

i dont know....the email sent had info about me, like my nickname that only people around my area would know. so...yea...im worried.

Out of curiousity, is it a Hotmail addy? as I had the same trouble last week.

it amy be someone that knows u quite well and guessed your password if it something you like or a name etc if they know ur knick name???

[glassjaw]

no...its a Yahoo one. I changed my password last nite to prevent any more of this. but when i tried to sign on this morning, my password was changed again. its really freaking me out. the email said...."Yu thought yu could outwit me....I am the Overlord.....I rule all!!!!"
So if that doesnt worry me....i dont know what will.

Is your addy visible on this forum?

[glassjaw]

im not sure....i dont think so.

Ahh just a theory it's ok.

Both Hotmail and Yahell are the easiest to hack.
Maybe try your ISP email instead ? The above two
are notorious for hacking.
