Unauthorized Emails from my account?

It is more than likely that your email account was hacked, either by a virus sniffing your password, or just simply hacked.

Either way, change your password on your email account. Unfortunately the damage by already be done. They already have your contact list and your email address associated with that contact list. There is nothing stopping them from sending out emails using their own SMTP servers to everyone on your contact list and claiming the emails are from your email address. They don't actually have to have access to your yahoo account or even any yahoo server to send emails to people that come from your address.

 

email account hacked. please help

Also may I suggest you change email accounts to one of the following.....

Gmail
Outlook

The reason is they both use "Step two verification". This style of verification means even if a hacker gets your password they cannot log in to your account. You see every time someone try's to log in that hasn't been verified you will get a text or a phone call giving you a final code to log in. Its very easy and simple to setup also. The great thing is once you setup your Email application with a specific "application password" from that account you never have to log in again AND your account is protected from being logged in from foreign entities.

I like the new outlook personally however Gmail is also damn good. Gmail also has an IP tracker that allows you to see WHERE the account has been logged in from. Anyway let us know if you wanna change over and have any questions. We will be happy to help and welcome to TPU!

 

Account Closure !!!

When I log onto my Microsoft account all I get is this message. I cannot find an area to ask about account problems !!

Make sure Merv​.##############​ is ready to close

Before you mark this account for closure, you'll want to:

• Cancel any subscriptions. You can cancel most – but not all – subscriptions
  
  through Microsoft Billing. For subscriptions that you can't find there, you'll need to go directly to the service itself.
• Use all of your Skype credit. Your Skype credit (if any) will be lost on account closure. You may want to check about your Skype subscription and remaining Skype credit (if any)
  
  here
• Use up your account balances Any balances that you have from Microsoft or Xbox gift cards might be lost when this account closes.
  
  Check account balance
• Set up automatic email replies. During the waiting period, your Outlook.com inbox will still receive emails.
  
  Create an auto-reply to let people know that you're closing this account and tell them how to reach you instead.
• Disable Reset Protection. If you have a Windows device with Reset Protection enabled, you should
  
  disable this here before closing your account. If you do not disable Reset Protection, your phone could become unusable after your account is closed.
  

Just in case you change your mind, we wait 60 days before permanently closing an account. During the waiting period, this account is marked for closure but it still exists. To reopen it, you'll need to prove you're you using your current account security
info.

I have never asked nor do I want to close my account.

How can I stop this message every time.
