IMPORTANT - DO NOT OPEN EMAIL FROM SHARON

DO NOT CLICK ON THIS LINK IN AN EMAIL FROM SHARON!!! Her email account has been hacked.
Luckily, I saw the "downloader" part of the link and just deleted the email....

Wonder what, if anything, it downloaded to your con-fuser??? Hopefully, harmless!

I did it too. :x I should have known, I saw a few people last night on Facebook say not to open an email from them with no subject line, but I never would have thought Sharon would have done anything wrong! :lol: (just kidding woman) I opened it on my phone, saw it was a link and saved it as new till I go on my puter this morning, opened it, saw it was a Canadian Pharmacy and ding, ding, ding, I realized what I SHOULD have done. Anyway I deleted the email. If there is something else I should do, just let me know, PWEEZE!

Run a FULL scan on your entire hard drive.

If you clicked the link, please run your entire anti-virus program. It now is probably in your email program, too. That's how it gets there. I opened the email but didn't click the link.

Never click a link unless you really know you should. If your friend didn't say anything personal - email back and ask if it's legit. I did that with this email from Sharon.

Please, those of you who clicked the link - check your computer thoroughly. The sooner, the better. And if you think it might have gotten into your email program, go in and change your password in it. That sometimes stops it.

...and if anyone does e-mail me..... if you forget to put anything in the message line I most likely won't even open it.... :roll: Hoping that I don't miss too much important stuff that way but I also miss the trouble one wrong click can make. :lol:

I, too, received the email but sharon never emails me and there was no subject so I DIDN'T click on the link. My SIL just got hacked so I'm very careful. If there's no message with the email I dump it ASAP.

Strengthen your passwords. Mixed case, throw in a number or two...
