    1. Re: [VA-NORTHERN-NECK] Is There Hacking Going On The List
    2. In a message dated 7/26/2011 7:40:57 P.M. Central Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: DO alert the "sender" (but not by "reply", but your own message) and, if a list like this, me. Stay safe, Craig ****************************************************************** It has been suggested that you add the fictitious name and E Mail of Aaaaa Aaaaa with an E Mail Addy of [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) or any combination of A's. When the hackers attempt to send to everyone in your address book, it will stop because there is no such person and it would be the first one sent because of the A's. My address book was hacked and stolen last year. In order to change my address the computer asks a control question such as my mother's maiden name. That's pretty easy to find, considering I post on genealogy boards. What's the name of your first pet? The hackers have software with pet names that runs through until they find it. Pick something they can't guess or use your Pet's name and your address together or the year you got them, etc. Change that password now. Charlene Ebeling
