Very Important Post...

Today, I sadly noticed that my Hotmail account has been hacked somehow. It has resulted in e-mails being sent to almost everyone I have ever e-mailed saying things along the lines of "Make money from home" with a link. I wasn't going to post anything but I realised that as I have a money saving blog, that people may think it is genuinely me. It isn't, and I'm doing everything I can to work out how it has happened.

If you received an e-mail from me, please delete it. And please note, I will never ever send an e-mail saying to make money here with a link. The only time I will send a link is if you have e-mailed me first, or if it's my blog. :)

If you have any idea how this has happened, or anyway that I can stop this problem, then please let me know. I have already changed my password so I'm hoping that's helped.

Thank you for understanding and hope you're all having a good Friday.

  1. Mine did this the other day but the only way I realised is that none of the emails actually sent i just received emails back saying 'failed delivery' xx

    1. Mine too! 3 hadn't sent and then when I checked my sent box, I found lots of sent ones. Hopefully it's sorted now.

  2. Thank you so much for your advice in the comment - I'm definitely going to change my passwords regularly. Hopefully I won't be hacked again.

  3. I had the exact same thing yesterday :( I only realised because of all the 'out of office emails'. Its quite a good job it happened on a weekend as I probably wouldn't have known if it weren't for them!
    This is the second time it has happened to me know and I don't really understand it as I do use good, strong passwords. So annoying. xx
