[QUOTE="pete165, post: 377242, member: 11308"] A friend of mine who still uses me as her IT guy received a email from one of her friends. She wanted to know she was asking for $,000's.After not hearing from my friend for a few days. She rang my friend eventually . We found out that someone had hacked her contacts and had used them to email everyone on the list asking for money. With help from a mate in the AFP, google and happy to say microsoft we got the son of a b. He was in the USA and is now happy to have a home for the next 25 years in a federal penitentiary. Beware of any unsolicited emails. If you do not know the sender just delete. I just received on my phone at 11.10 a multimedia message. I deleted it as it said from a private number and I am not expecting anything especially at that time of night. [/QUOTE]
