It's not Nick; somehow, someone in his address may have been
phished. Recently I've been getting job opportunity links,
ostensibly from friends, but with phony e-mail addresses.
The first time it happened to me I received a link from someone I
knew on Twitter. I was sent very disturbing porn link that went out
to all my twitter followers (fortunately I rare go on Twitter). I
got a nasty reply from a young girl saying, "Jon, I used to think
you were a standup guy, but now I know you are a dirty old man".. I
changed my password right away, but it was too late. Most social
networks have a security page.
Now, I know better than to reply to e-mails asking for my password,
ESPECIALLY if my user I.D. is my e-mail address, or it is from a
bank. Nor do I respond to e-mails that threaten to close my account
unless I provide personal information.
See my message that crossed yours somewhere in the ether about the
time one of those cost me just a couple of hours ago . . .
(The waste of time was in getting to a place where I could report it
and ask for confirmation if just in case it was genuine. Why do
"service" providers make it so difficult to find and use their
customer "service" contact links? Grrr . . . >:-o )
. . . ronn! :)
