Erm HELP!!

[Dris]

I have just logged onto my 'sensible EMail addy -you know the one we all have for business and serious stuff.

Well I have 3 Mailer Demons (sp?) and an EMail with just our user name without the @ bit.I c & p what was on my EMail and its for bleeding viagra.

Problem is that its been sent to all the people I EMail from that addy and that includes my lawyer in Spain and such like.

I have the list of people but I would like to EMail them all collectively so its apparent that i didnt send it but I dont know how you can make a group up *blush

Plus crucially how can this have happened?

[Dris]

No replies but anyone any idea what could have happened?

Ive EMailed everyone concerned to tell them it wasnt me who sent the roque Email.

Anyone can make an email appear as though it's from anyone else. It's a spammers favourite method, as you are more likely to open it if you think you know the sender.

Thanks another-view -do you think ive maybe opened an EMail from them in the past -as you know the amount of 'guff' emails we all get and they have just cottoned on to my addy?

Hope its not a virus !!

O and why couldnt it have been for something else apart from bleeding Viagra !!!!!!

Either that or you've put your email on the web by accident. I doubt it's a virus but you could try downloading Malwarebytes and running a "quick system scan" if in doubt. Google malwarebytes for the website address.
