Spam-a-lama-ding-dong!

There was a moment of excitment when i logged into my yahoo account just now. Hello Christina! Inbox (14).

14 unread messages? I thought, Damn i'm loved!

I mean, for a change, it would be nice not having to click SPAM and delete eflyers from clubs i'll never visit.

Scanning the "From" column, i noticed several emails were from friends i haven't seen or heard from in ages. Including one reply from my client *gulp* Then followed by notifications that an email that was sent from my account had bounced back.

Hang on.

But i didn't send any emails.

So in the 12 plus years that i've had my yahoo account, never has it been hijacked by someone or something. I feel violated. Never say NEVER, cause it's bound to happen. I'm just hoping whatever that link was wasn't a virus or some hardcore porn site, cause i don't think my client would have appreciated it that much. It would be quite embarrassing.

Yup, it's time to change my password.

So if you were one of the unlucky ones to have received a spam email from me with just a link. Please don't open it.
