Bullbreedlover Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Over the last few days there has been all these weird emails come through on email. I havent opened any(am sure many people havent) But I have gone off the list as far as emails go just in case it will explode :laugh: Does anyone know what is going on and what is happening to remedy the situation? Is it a viral worm/scam thingy? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Are You Serious Jo Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 It's a worm that is getting into everyone's email and I think it happens to those who are using yahoo email addresses. They need to change their password. Just delete without opening the messages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diva Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Spam hit on Yahoo apparently. Delete suspect emails without opening. The group itself will not explode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alyosha Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I think Yahoo got smashed the other night. My yahoo club email also got hacked from a location in Turkey and a spam link was emailed out to all contacts and recent email addresses. Nice and embarrassing...

Airedaler Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 You can change your settings so that you read your Oz Show postings from the webpage and they do not come into your mail box. Much easier than sifting through heaps of mails and if on digest then no problem with downloads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The group itself will not explode. :laugh: that's up for debate I should have been more explicit, it won't explode from this attack. Whether it explodes from internal causes is an entirely separate issue, LOL. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullbreedlover Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share Posted February 9, 2013 So they are coming through on NZShowdogs now(took awhile) but apparantly it may not be just limited to Yahoo/groups email addresses as one spam that came through is from an account that had an "xtra.co.nz" addy.
