Just because my email got hacked doesn't mean my computer has a virus.
I am merely saying that your assertion that your e-mail got hacked in a literal sense is almost definitely incorrect. I'd wager money that Google did not have any security leaks and that your problem comes from user error in another way; the most common catalysts of security breach are malware, viruses, or phishing. You should probably figure out how your password was obtained by external sources. I was giving you the benefit of the doubt by saying it was a virus, though you should consider all the places you have signed into your e-mail account and what personal information is easily accessible within said account.

It's probable that it was phished due to recent activities. Btw, it's not Google, it's Yahoo, and besides I wasn't blaming Google(Yahoo) wtf I just said my email was hacked, weather it was through a link I clicked or capcha I've entered recently in the past are the most probable. What I'm telling you is the probability of my computer having a virus is close to none.

Much better than Fliphop's HOBO 12 posts.

Anyways, if you use GMAIL, I always recommend the 2-step verification. At least nobody can't log into your account from another computer without obtaining a verification code that's sent to your phone

Falling for phishing isn't getting your e-mailed hacked, nor do you suddenly transmit your password via clicking a link or entering a captcha. Maybe you should take a course on internet security and you.

Your spam got bounced back, what's there to decipher?

People can send messages that look like they are coming from your e-mail without ever accessing your e-mail account. However it's clear this is coming from you because of the recipients. That is also spoofing, not hacking.

What you sent out was spam messages straight from your account, and if Ymail keeps track of IPs that signed into your account you can even see that someone else logged into your account, probably from China. They then spam your address book with referral links that they make a profit off of people either clicking or purchasing items from.

Pretty much what Gea said.

Your email got hijacked.

Change the password to something more secure.

If you use the same password for other sites, change them too.

Okay so I check the IP **** and it says someone logged into my email by mobile and by browser at 2:59am from GA, US. Also there seems to be another instance from VA, US sometime during Jan. but nothing was sent out when that happened.

I do recall yahoo mail was hacked a while back.

It's possible you were affected.

I wish I could just change email addresses but I need this for work, so I need a different solution :(

Edit: I've changed my password to a pretty crafty one and I even added that signature stuff where it needs a personal image so I don't get phished. Hopefully that solves it, but I'll keep an eye on my IP log ins. Any other advice, Dave, Robert?

Even then Yahoo should hash their stuff.

It sounds like they got your password sometime in January and then actually used it today. Since it's been awhile and nothing else was tampered with like bank accounts, facebook, amazon etc consider it an isolated issue for the time being. It's difficult to pinpoint what you were doing then and what caused it. My advice is limit where you log into your e-mail and check periodically to ensure it hasn't been messed with again. If you are worried about phishing, consider using an external client instead of the browser based on to log into your e-mail and never type the password in your web browser.

And Allan, congrats on showing improvement in math. That is a huge jump from your quiz grades to your test grades.

I heard pj burnt the soap and wipped shaving cream all over the bathroom's mirror, if this is true then I must join the fun.
Also it could be an app that's sending the messages, which most commonly happens if u:
1.Clicked on the wrong shi
2.Accepted random FB app
