Re: Spam alert

A lot of Yahoo account details are stolen through phishing attempts.

You receive a link, you click it, it prompt you to sign into Yahoo and you think nothing of it...

...except it's not a real Yahoo sign-in page, and now the spammer has your username and password.

Whatever AV/anti-Malware protection you install you will get some sneak through. No one product protects against everything and they all protect against a slightly different set of malware. You can't install them all, they would work against each other and make things worse.

Yahoo gets compromised at least once or twice a year these days. Often account details are stolen so you need to change your password periodically. Every little helps.

Its happening on Yahoo all the time now. I have nothing show with AVG and anti malaware. but it still gets through.  Very odd. I have deleted all my contacts as well now, so they dont "shout" at me :)

My e-mail account seems to have been "invaded" and seems to be sending spam messages. In fact one of my other accounts received a message from this account. I have changed my password and hopefully cleaned everything up. If you or the group receives spam from me at this address please delete it and accept my apologies.

Yours, David
