My gmail got hacked/spoofed. If you get spam from me, sorry about that.

password changed; that should take care of it.

I am not sure how they did it. This is one strange email.

You can set up gmail to force a login to call you on your phone and give you a token you have to enter.

My current problem is my phone is dead. :/ So I can't spam anyone!

Scott says I was spoofed, rather than hacked. The email did NOT come from my account and is not in my sent folder. So, joy.

I thought so based on the IP numbers in the email. It's been so long since that were even possible... I'm wondering how it got past the authorized sender encryption. And so it goes.
