Owenproducts@live.com Sent an email from my Hotmail provider and ask for my sign in info. Sent this email first, copied below:
Then hacked in to my email and added this email: alertmoney@hotmail.com, sent to my contacts, that looks like it's from me, asking to send money to London, that I am in trouble and need $3000.00 on my behalf, which isn't the truth.
Please advise...
