I run a lot of yahoo groups. I don't think it's all spoofing. The messages come in with a bunch of other valid emails from the user's address book. So they do have access to that. Once the yahoo password is changed the emails stop too.
But you do bring up a valid point. The yahoo groups will send an email when a reply is sent on a thread. No password is needed. I am not sure what prevents a lot more spam getting through. > -----Original Message----- > From: Cyndi [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Monday, May 13, 2013 9:03 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: CS>make money with no money :) > > On 5/13/2013 9:32 AM, Jaxi Schulz wrote: > > more complicated passwords should fix it > > > > In many cases the email accounts aren't hacked at all, they are spoofed so > changing passwords won't make a difference.
