Hi all.
Right. I received a suspect email from a good friend yesterday.
(I spoke with them, and they never sent the email in question. They also checked their
sent items, so they definitely didn't send it).
They were curious about this, so I forwarded them the email.
I booted into a live CD (and using Firefox, Adblock plus and No script) I opened the
email and forwarded it on to them.
I (obviously) didn't click on on the link in the mail itself.
I suspect that their email address has been spoofed.
I've checked the recent activity details on my email account, and there doesn't seem to be
anything amiss.
Do you think it's necessary for my to change my email account password ?
(My current password it 19 alphanumeric string).
Am I being a little paranoid ?
Useful info -
We both use webmail
My email = Gmail
Friends email = Yahoo mail
TIA for any help or advice.
