Just a quick FYI: my Gmail account was hacked earlier today, so if you received an email from me with just a link, don't click the link.I've changed my password, contacted Google, and am trying to figure out what else I can do. Some of this spam was sent to my co-workers and places where I applied for jobs. Wonderful

Search your mail for your password to pull up password retrieval emails -- you need to change your passwords on those sites, as well, because your hacker will have seen then and have access to those accounts.

*hugs you close*

Getting your email hacked sucks so much. Even though it's small in scope, it's a massive PITA in intensity.

I don't think I had any of those sent to my Gmail. Or if I did, I deleted them.

I clicked the link. /_\ I'll run a virus scan later, but I got it as I was looking at stuff about Japan, and I thought maybe it was something that had to do with that.

I'm sorry shit just keeps piling on you. Is there anything I can do?

I think it's just an ad for Viagra. That's what my mother said after she clicked the link. *facepalm* Looks like I sent it to Senator Olympia Snowe's office too. Wtf?

I don't know, bb. Just knowing someone is listening helps.

So sorry about your email. I was about to email you about something another friend of mind mentioned.

Bowling Green University is looking for a librarian.

Probably can find out about it online.

I'll look. Or send me the link if you have it. My Yahoo account is fine. Thanks for the tip.
