My email contacts list has been hacked.

Some people, I know from here, have received Scam emails - that do look a bit odd. THEY ARE!

I will not send out emails with attachments, so, if you do receive anything from "Me" with attachments, please delete them without opening.

I have changed my password - and I do have security in place (but it failed to catch this one!)

I have emailed a fair number of my contacts but just in case - I'm posting this warning here too.

There are some nasty people around.

Gordon, I assumed you had been robbed in Manila and were in urgent need of cash for your hotel bill. I've already wired you 1,000 dollars. Just send it back if you don't need it.

Thanks, John.

If you think I'm going to return that money to you .........

My mother used to say never poke a horse bearing gifts with a sharp stick, or, something like that.

I assumed you weren't sending me the emails. Mind you, if you were, you were very persistent!

Gifts with sharp sticks are to be avoided at all costs!

I read that as 'gits with sticks must be avoided'
