Somebody managed to take over my email account and use it to spam horrible advertisements to everyone on my contact list.
I didn't even think that was possible. Wouldn"t they have to have your password and log in be able to use your contact list like that?
I turned all my security options in msn account settings to max privacy and changed my password. It didn't help. The only thing that worked was to delete my contact list.
All for naught. MSN determined that my account was being used for fraudulent transactions of some kind and suspended my email acct. They are no help whatsoever getting it turned back on of course.
I had the same email acct for 15 years.....all my website memberships have that as the acct. to send forgotten passwords to, so when i end up forgetting one and I will.....I am screwed......glum..
