    3. Hmmm.... I don't know what's going on then. The spammers are getting more sophisticated with the types of emails being sent out to us and they are especially busy this weekend. The other type of messages I've been getting today are to 2 of my web email accounts; the messages claim they are from my web mail servers telling me that I need to upgrade my accounts because my messages have gone over the allowed limit, so of course they ask you to "confirm" your password & user name in the email and reply to their message. Aside from the fact that I don't read my email online in the first place since it comes into my email client, I always ignore & delete that kind of crap anyway.

Deloris- I would have thought that also had I received the spam at my admin addresses FIRST...but I received it first at my personal email address and that is pretty rare for me to get spam at BOTH my private AND admin addresses unless it is from someone somehow connected to my lists...but I do have to correct myself. I made the ASSumption that Kelly was subscribed to my lists...but as of this afternoon that isn't the case. So I guess anything is possible. Joan In a message dated 7/29/2012 12:59:58 P.M.

Since I rarely get email from anyone on the adm. address, I believe it is someone who has harvested all of the adm. addresses rather than from someone's hijacked account. I just delete them right along with any other junk mail. Deloris
