PSA: Yahoo Hack

Sep 24, 2012 20:34

Sorry everybody, it looks like my yahoo account was hacked this evening. I have not sent anything to anyone since this morning. So if you got an email grin me, please delete it and definitely do not click on the link.

This sort of thing is so enraging. I hope you're able to get it straightened out without too much trouble. What scum!

I didn’t get one from you, but I’ve gotten five other ones from various other Yahoo! accounts. So it’s not just your account. (I see this happen easily five or ten times as frequently to Yahoo! accounts as to other free email accounts.)

Oh, uh, yes, actually, I did get a couple from you. Sorry, just forgot that was your email address. :-) Got a bunch from other people today too, though.

the only thing I could think to do was send Jon a warning. Hope it was of some use.
