A couple of months ago, everybody in my contact list got an email from me telling them to go to a Canadian Pharmacy. It was a site translated into English from Russian.
Did I send the email? If you seriously ask that question, you must not know me very well. I am vehemently against spamming people with worthless information, and you will never catch me forwarding jokes, urban legends, or specious facts.
I hated that my name and email was used in this manner, so I went into my contact list and changed everyone’s contact info so that I could use the list, but no one else could.
I am so glad I did. This morning, I opened my email to find it full of “unable to deliver” messages. It seems that hotmail was hacked again, and more messages were sent out in my name.
Only this time, they didn’t go to all my friends and acquaintances. They harmlessly bounced into my email where I can delete them like the trash they are.
Take that, you hackers who pretend you are me! I will defeat your nefarious plot to, to, to…
Hmmm. I really cannot figure out what they think they are going to accomplish. World domination one link at a time?
I can’t stop all the hackers, but I feel good that I have at least done one good deed for the day.
Take care, all of you.
Those hackers are still out there…
waiting, just waiting…
