Scam Alert
I have today been the victim of e-mail hacking and it might happen to you.
My e-mail account is with hotmail. Yesterday, one of my regular correspondents sent me a mail. When I opened it, there was a blue panel asking me to open in hotmail. I clicked and it asked for my password.
Stupidly I gave my password. This did not open the e-mail but it did, apparently, give the scammer access to my contacts list and then they all got e-mails which were supposedly from me.
I'm very sorry to have caused hassle to my friends.
Be alert; your country needs 'lerts'.
