    Virus email opened


    Hi, I've opened an email from a former employer to find out it contained a virus it has sent emails to some contacts forwarding itself without my interaction the emails don't appear in my sent folder, I've virus scanned my phone & computer found ccminer.exe & cleaned it. Now I'm not receiving emails to my hotmail acc other than junk mail, I've tested by sending emails from my other addresses & no emails getting through for 5 days now, usually get 20 a day? I'm thinking it must of changed recieving address but am at a loss.

    :)

    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.
