I hope you reported it.
I have been hacked twice.
Emails sent to all my contacts!!!!
They said they were from me!!!!
However, all my contacts knew, as I always end my emails in a particular. way.
Yes you always end your emails to me in a particular way...usually ends in off......

Re: hacker's

This is from the header of one that showed as being from my account


"Return-path: <qualita@bajardi.it> Envelope-to: dave@*******.co.uk Delivery-date: Sun, 14 Apr 2019 15:53:59 +0100"

I'm not qualita@bajardi.it and I doubt if the sender was either. I was asked to make a payment to a bitcoin wallet, I didn't.

Do you feel the person got into all my personal information .
Very common scam email.

I put some stuff in the technology section, about this.

Lots of examples of people getting these emails.

Two thinks you shouldn't do:-

1) You should not reply.

2) If your have an opportunity to "blacklist" a sender you should think whether you are actually blacklisting yourself as the incoming email is to your address.

Some email providers have spotted these senders and they are rapidly being shut out.

Just delete the message. You'll probably get it again, in a few months. If so, just delete it again.
