Spam
3.7.12
Last month I had my Yahoo email account temporarily highjacked by a smammer who then sent emails in my name to writing colleagues, friends, acquaintances and family members.
It leaves one feeling vulnerable and violated. It's also a nuisance to the email recipients and means I have to assure them individually that it wasn't me.
Fortunately both a colleague and one of my relatives recognised that the language style of the spam mail did not sound like me and alerted me to the problem and solution.
I'd been wondering why my email had been running so slow.
What's most annoying is that my computer defence software did not pick up any intrusion.
Down with spam! It's driven by selfishness, greed and lack of consideration for others!
