Been hacked

[rev-erend]

All,

My aplogies to all but looks like my email has been hacked.

If anyone gets any email from me - please ignore it.

I'm fine - don't send them money.

[clive f]

just had one mate and was checking on here to see if you were about, how on earth did that happen?

[rev-erend]

There seems to be a phishing scam going on today .. 10,000's of thousands..

I cant even close the account but I have just deleted all contacts.

[ed_crouch]

I got one too. Cocks. It wasnt even plausibly written.

[pwd95]

Just checked, I had one too.

[jmorgan]

They couldn't spell, so thought it was genuine....

[Chassis 33]

Just popped on here to tell you, but it seems you already know!!!
Regards
Iain

As I suggested on the other thread - shall we all offer help and see how far we can take it?

Or just ignore it?

[adam quantrill]

I thought it was a bit dodgy when he asked me for money - he knows I own a Wedge - I won't have any spare after filling it up!!! ;^)

[ed_crouch]

Useful to know you are friends with Whales though - never know when you'll need a bit of Beluga caviar. Not sure how many Cops they have in Whales though - perhaps if they were stuck in a rowing boat and the Whale was hungry.... Dunno. And how the hell they expect to get a plane out of there - Whale is a greedy b@stard eating a plane or wot? Mind you, did the world a favour chowing down on some muggers...

Think I have it fixed .. not that the windows team are helping .. they are down for maintenance. They probably got hacked.

Deleted all contacts, changed password and contact email account. Hopefully it's sorted.

Oh and I would definately have spelt Wales correctly .. lovely place, some of my fav roads are up there

Gotta go pack for Copenhagen - off at 6am tomorrow.

[wee man]

Wish I read this post before I sent you my credit card details Alan.

You now owe me £16500.00!!!

[Mrs H]

Rev, ages since I've been on PH but popped in just to let you know same. I cottoned on when it said you where in whales [sic] and needed a flight home

[york33]

Ah phew, glad you've recovered from your sad and scary experience in Whales

Let me guess - do you need a sub for the return journey???? ;^)

Happy hols Alan. Stop using Hotmail!

[dickymint]

Rev is now being held hostage by Me and MikeyB!! Send the money or We will ship Him off to Holland

[JVaughan]

Seriously though .. How many people would actually send money to a mate who emailed them ..
Personally I would laugh my bks off at their misfortune.

As Adam says though .. were all wedge owners .. that, getting married and owning a boat are the 3 ways of loosing money

[James MK]

And there was me about to send some cash over. Only the second such scam I've had all year!

Hmmm, Wedge to restore... Check
Getting married soon.... Check
Owned a 20 ton boat for 7 years... Check.

No wonder I'm so effin' poor!

Definition of a boat: A large hole in the water into which you throw your money.
