Welcome to Over50sForum! The site for people over 50 to chat, make friends, discuss, share, and generally be part of something that's fun and friendly :)
It may be that one of their friends or contacts has a virus infection which used their contacts list to send itself out to others including you.
That is a likely explanation however it is compounded by the fact that if people are not careful with their app permissions their mobile phone shares their contact list with all and sundry and that often includes any email addresses gathered from their email account.
That's odd Tara I don't get any spam with Gmail but used to get lots with my previous email provider.
Same here. Recently changed to g.mail because my email has ceased. Having said that, I am ALWAYS suspicious of anything Google, seeing as their aim is to control the World.

I was getting some very unpleasant pornography, which I never have received with any of my other e-mail providers.
