Scam Alert

[Gill1941]

I thought I'd post this about a recent scam I received. I'm usually very careful but they used my daughter's email . The message was - I have sent you a scype message click here to read email" So I did and got a load of rubbish. Have scanned and no visible damage but because of this idiot I have had to block my daughter's email as scam! Had a second one this am which is when I blocked it. Fortunately we always phone rarely email but it is a pain.

Just to be on the safe side I'd suggest your daughter changes her email password.

Good idea SlackAlice thanks. Where do these people get all this info?! Yes, I know it is out there on the web.

To block the trojan/scams you only need change your email password.

Delete any email that asks for your password, as that is the trojan.
