I just got a whole heap of emails in my inbox (hotmail) to say my message didn't send and then had a random one in there from me that I didn't send. This is what it said:
Recent okay? In China, I found a website on electronic products and good credit quality also very good. Time has come and see us! www.lxcnd.com Mail: lxcnd@hotmail.com Tel: +86-0377-65571109 and it appears to have sent it to everyone in my address book. Does anyone know if its a random one off or maybe a virus or something. |

It sounds like your address has been spoofed (real tech speak lol) where it looks like you have sent it even tho you haven't. They pick up on active email accounts and use them.
I would change your hotmail password for a start. If it keeps happening, you may wish to consider opening a new hotmail account. I think you can block emails like that too in hotmail - try that also. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I had the same thing happen (and the same message) and when I went into my address book there was a random number where the names usually are. I deleted that also and have had no problems. I haven't changed my password but also haven't had it happen again and that was baout 2 weeks ago. Felt awful tho!
So check your contacts/address book and look for the number. Mine started with a 6 but can't remeber the rest. -------------
