I am expecting no pckgs from this email but recieved attatched email.I cancelled that email since but it looks like a chek email that sent it.the tn was blacked out when I recieved it.thought id post this as it was my old email.any suggestions?1000073592.png
 
it would be easier to give you a suggestion if you could calm down for half a second and not type in broken english. you said you cancelled this email but somehow you're checking the inbox? someone sending you a fake email about a package isn't necessarily a "hack" incident unless i'm overlooking something here.
 
You won't be hacked if you don't give them any info. This is a phishing attempt. Sezn@am, same scammers who've been at it for a while.

You made the safe play with what info you had. They likely obtained that address from the contact list of someone else they successfully phished. In the future it's always good to let the folks here know so they can also be on the lookout, but you probably don't need to close your account.
 
Its common to have your info sold through any number of avenues. Expect plenty of these attempts andd calls/txt messages with "real tracking numbers" if you stay in this game. Not a reason to freak, sorry to say but its partof the deal. Rule of thumb always double check your sender , Dont touch a link ever. Shutting down your email all good and all but it will happen again. Be diligent and just ignore it. If its not from my vendor i dont even touch it, I have 0 reason to and i understand i use proton strictly for one thing. Any otheer emails i get are scammers/spammers/soliciters/advertisements.

  2. Dr-Octagon @ Dr-Octagon: How about that curling team huh? Give it up
  3. Dr-Octagon @ Dr-Octagon: Top o tha Marnin
  4. Professor_ @ Professor_: Good morning Guys
  5. T @ Tinyfishnemo: Hope everyone has a good and safe weekend.
  6. T @ tylerderrden: Dunno
  7. S @ soupson: What happened to chem genie?
  8. D @ drdrizzy13: LSU is trash and has always been trash but a night game in death valley is unlike anything I've experienced. Except the first game back to the superdome reopened after Katrina destroyed it. Everybody was crying and drunk as shit lol. All time favorite in person sports moment ever.
  9. M @ meepmoopmeep: Kiffin is a traitor and he and LSU deserve each other since they’re both complete trash
  10. D @ drdrizzy13: yea he's a joke lol. Can't stand him.
  11. L @ Layne_Cobain: You know who rly sucks…lane kiffin 😂 dude is all that’s wrong with college sports or at least a big chunk of it…and he lied about being told he could still coach ole miss in the playoffs
  12. D @ drdrizzy13: Hey at least Ole Miss got in. I can't stand LSU. They really sucked this year.
  13. M @ meepmoopmeep: as an A&M fan I’m content with us missing the SECCG for that reason. Georgia about to fuck Alabama up
  14. D @ drdrizzy13: Yeah I agree if bama loses I think they are out. That would be 3 losses. I don't see a 3 loss team getting in this year.
  15. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah that’s why sark was pleading his case about that Texas shouldn’t be punished for scheduling a non conference game against the best team and losing if they hadn’t done that they’d probably be in but oh well way it goes there’s always gonna be a few teams who get robbed or feel they got robbed even with a 12 team playofff…if bama loses to Georgia I’d think they’d be out but who knows
  16. D @ drdrizzy13: Alabama also lost to Florida State pretty bad. Whom Florida beat. I just think if they didn't decide to play ohio state the first game. They would be in with 2 losses instead of Alabama.
  17. M @ meepmoopmeep: @drdrizzy13 Texas lost to Florida of all teams, they weren’t heading for the playoffs anyways imo. At least not this year
  18. D @ drdrizzy13: Texas is offically out of the playoffs they didn't make the top 12. I do wish they were in it. They showed up against Texas AM. But there fatal flaw was scheduling Ohio State for their opening. Which would have been great if they won but they are a 3 loss team now.
  19. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah idk about arch I could see him staying with Sark for another year but if he plays rly well in the playoff who knows that is if they get in
  20. D @ drdrizzy13: Man a lot of Saints fan want Arch but I think he said he is playing another year. I would take him probably. But if Texas AM QB comes out or Ohio State's I think you gotta take one if your picking top 2.
