Tami UelmenKlumpyan She must have given out her e-mail password to someone.When this scam hit here last year, their trick was to pretend they were theISP and they threatedned to cancel the account unless the customer confirmedtheir p/w. Once they have the p/w, they go into the account, change thep/w, and do whatever mischief they want, such as sending out these bogustravel-disaster pleas. The ISP may or may not be sympathetic to thesituation. ----------From: Ramos <ramoschristina1@...>Date: Mon, 25 Apr 2011 11:12:51 -0500Subject: RE: Horrible Easter Vacation.........

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 Recently I was notified by Walgreen's, the drug store chain, that their e-mail system had been hacked into, so I been expecting to experience something similar to what you've just described.

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 That's a good example of why it's a good idea to use a p/w for websites different from your e-mail p/w. > From: " Ekren " <ekren@...> > Recently I was notified by Walgreen's, the drug store chain, that their > e-mail system had been hacked into, so I been expecting to experience > something similar to what you've just described. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
