Guest guest Report post Posted May 14, 2010 His email has been hijacked. Same message came thru under a member email in another group I'm in. A member of that group used to be a computer tech helpdesk person (or somesuch, she said) and traced the IP of the message to Hong Kong.JudyAnd this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

Guest guest Report post Posted May 14, 2010 Tony, I also received this same message, only it was about a year ago, and they used my neices husband's name as the one in London! But they had stollen ALL their private information out of their computer!!! That was how they knew Rob's name and that he was in the army- and was over seas at the time. Every contac in their computer got this message! NOW- this is how they did it- When my neice "signed into her Mail- a "FAKE" thing popped up asking her for her info. again- and her password! That is why everyone needs to make their own "seal" which will appear right above where you sign into your mail. To do this you click on the thing right above your sign in- you will choose your own background color- and a word- to go there. Then when you sign into mail- or anyone elsr who uses your computer- you must always make sure you see your seal- before you sign in! Also someone should try to contact Michael to let him know- But NOT by email! Hope this helps! Sincerely, Elizabeth Steve Cox <cox_agentoleander soup Sent: Fri, May 14, 2010 1:55:01 PMRe: HELP!!!
