Recently, the emails started again. I think I was hacked again! Last time I alerted you and changed my password.
I am changing my password again. Until this is resolved, I will not email anyone, instead I will use this forum if the need occurs. The only exception is Carnival submissions. If you have any suggestions to help me cure this problem, please let me know.

I got one from you and knew that it wasn't you immediately. It's not the way that you write so no link clicking from me! Maybe you should try changing you password from a different computer? There might be spyware on your PC that grabs your password when you try to change it. Good luck!

That's a good idea Sandy. I second that. Spyware can easily track new passwords which would mean that changing yours on the same computer would be a wasted effort. I didn't receive any emails from you, but thanks for the heads-up! I'll be more careful here in the future.

I got one this morning, but I knew it wasn't you from the subject itself. Here is something I did when google accounts were hacked earlier this month, just as a precaution

Your link was really helpful! Thanks, I think I found an unauthorized access to my account. I deleted it and I checked for any unauthorized IP addresses. I seem to be clean now. To play it safe, I will change my password one more time from a different computer.

I just completed a full system scan and found four (4) "exploit" viruses. I think it came through the hack on gmail. I will continue to monitor!
Please delete any emails from me. I will not communicate through email until I am safe.

Also, make sure to use a very strong password. That is an extra layer of defense.

Hacking of emails seems to be happening a lot more often today.

I got one from your address as well and figured you'd been hacked.
