Happy Monday! or at least I was trying. My email contact list has been hacked. Anyone who is on my contact list got an email "from me" today saying that I was recommending properties in your area. No, I am not a real estate agent. No, this email was NOT from me.
If you click on the link or respond (unfortunately I did both), your contact list will receive the same email showing that it is coming from you.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience. The person that was listed as the sender for me would have potentially been emailing me properties so I opened it without thinking about it. What a headache!
Hopefully none of you fell for the scheme.
Have a great week! I know I have been MIA for a while now but I am hoping to return soon.
Got the email but did not click on the link! Sorry - sucks when that happens.
ReplyDeleteMe too, did not click. Recognized this one, have had dozens, and was used once too.
ReplyDeleteAmazing that kind of talent being used for evil. There's a story in there!
I had wondered about that. I did open it by mistake (hadn't had my diet pepsi yet). We'll see what happens. At least it doesn't seem a trojan or anything harmful; just spam advertising we're all used to.
ReplyDelete.........dhole
At least it was just for real estate and not for Viagra. That has happened to me once or twice also.
ReplyDeleteI received it but didn't open it as I had a similar one a while back from someone else so knew the scam! Was going to contact you and let you know but you beat me to it! Have a good week.
ReplyDeleteI got an email like that, but didn't click the link. :/ Not sure why ppl do that to others. :/
ReplyDeleteGot one of those, recognized the name, smelled fish...delete. lol. These things happen.
ReplyDeleteI deleted it without opening it. My mom's computer got infected - she sent me and all of her business customers links to porn. Funny and yet not funny.
ReplyDeleteYou should get your computer cleaned immediately. Leave me a comment on my blog if you need instructions (tonjasmusings.blogspot.com). Please don't email me. :)
Everyone needs a break now and then, I had mine and am just returning. Good luck to you!
ReplyDeleteGot the email, but did not click on it as I smelled a rat.
ReplyDeleteDidn't get the email, but I won't open it if I do. Grr. I just don't see why people think they have to do stuff like this. :)
ReplyDeleteThis was lol actually .
