Received a skype email

I received an email from Skype saying that my account has been created, with the username bpatterson404. I never created this account. I already have my own skype account. What's my next move?

Nope, just a winner of a scam.  There is no national contest or lottery.  Beyond how unbelievable it is, there will be major grammar and spelling issues throughout the correspondence you received that gives it away.

  • How can I change my Skype email notifications to E...

    My email notifications from Skype are received in Spanish, apparently because I live in a Spanish-speaking country (Panama).  Since I do not speak nor read Spanish, it would be greatly appreciated if these notifications could instead come in English.  My account is set up with English as the language and Skype works just fine that way.  The problem is that whenever I receive a notice via email from Skype, it is in Spanish.  Is there a way to change that?

    I will try writing Customer Service, thanks for the idea.  I'd like to reply to the following message which came to my email address, but has yet to show up here, to say that there does not appear to be any option regarding "language" in the Subscriptions & Bookmarks section.

  • Can't login. Receiving password reset emails for w...

    Hello,
    I'm having really weird problems with my skype account [Redacted for privacy.]. I registered a new one just to post this message, because I can't log in with my original.
    I checked - I have 3 emails set in my profile. I'm logged in on the Skype App. Everything I want to change requires a password, and it doesn't accept the pass, even though I have it saved (using 1pass).
    When I attempt to reset my pass, I'm receiving password reset emails for users that aren't mine. I successfully changed the password for two different users, probably making them suffer the same problem as myself. Not sure how Skype picked those two users and decided they are me.
    So, I'm logged in, but can't change anything, or use some skype features.
    My username is [Redacted for privacy.]
    SOS

    I managed to fix it myself by manally entering the code instead of clicking on the reset link. This way a list with all accounts that had my email was showed and I was able to select my user from the list.
    My email looks like a very popular typo.

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
    If nothing above helped, restart your router.

  • TS3899 cannot receive or send email from my hotmail account, refuses to verify server. I have changed my password, deleted the account numerous times, any solutions? all on ios 6.

    cannot receive or send email from my hotmail account, refuses to verify server. I have changed my password, deleted the account numerous times, any solutions? all on ios 6. it was working up until a few days ago and now refuses to load on both my ipad 2 and iphone 4S
    in the process deleted all my contact, very annoying.
    all help is much appreciated.
    interesting that my gmail account does work perfectly.

    this may or may not help - but give it a try.  On a forum some were reporting that talk21 is now under the yahoo umbrella.  below are the steps this use listed.  (This was an android forum, but the email settings should be the same.  In short it looks like their server names have changed.  An existing account may have simply been forwarded - but if you are reinstalling, it may want a clean install to the right servers.)  Pay particular attention to the server names and port settings.  (this thread was started based on a discussion of Imap vs pop - you are already an Imap person - so ignore that part)
    See if this helps.
    why settle for pop3, when IMAP works with talk21 and not only does mail get pushed out faster with IMAP, but when you click refresh it will be received faster than pop3.  The other advantage is subfolders are also supported with IMAP but cant be seen with POP3. This mail feature works with my android eclair & hero phone and the settings are exactly the same for win mobiles also (not tested). The mail setting up roadmap is the same from what i can remember once in the mail feature for win mobi. 
    This is what you need to do to setup Talk21 email with IMAP. 
    Incoming server settings
    IMAP server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
    Port - 143
    Security type - none 
    Outgoing Server settings
    SMTP server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    Port - 25
    Security type - none Also important note - Enable 'require sign-in'
    and enter your talk21 username and password The End...works a treat for me p.s. Its only taken me 3 years to work it out with win mobile and recently with android. Finally got it to work...hope this helps all the talk21 users out there. if there are any other similar posts out there with no answer...dont forget to mention my name when passing this post around.

    Adobe Creative Cloud Muse: Why I don't receive anymore the email from the forms I created in several websites?

    Hello Sanjit,
    thank you for replying.
    I had the problem on this website, I have two forms, one simple and the other more sofisticated:
    www.oeso.org
    (at the bottom I have a simple contact form) and
    I created also a form on www.oeso.org/new-membership.html
    but i didn't receive any reply so
    I put the form on my website (architecturevisualdesign.ch) in a hidden form:
    http://architecturevisualdesign.ch/oeso-new-membership.html
    and here I receive the OESO New Membership Form Submission reply.
    Thank you for your help.
    Best regards,
    Nicole

  • I can get my email from the iCloud website, but my password won't work on my home computer to receive and send email

    When I open my email on my home computer, I can't receive or send email that is @mac based. I get a message that my passwork is invalid.  When I go to the iCloud website, my password works just fine.  Any clues?

    Delete your mail account from Mail preferences and set it up again using the Mail Server Information.
    Some users have apparently encountered issues using this information in pre-Lion set ups (I haven't), Roger Wilmut has kindly provided instructions for those who find themselves with this problem.

    Regarding receiving texts as emails:  Can you apply this setting to one individual? I want to continue to receive texts from everyone else except one person!

    Don't want to block the person, just have all his texts going directly to my email so that I can maintain a continuous record of his text contacts (rather than remain in text form).
    It appears that I must select an option that makes ALL texts go to email, which I'd prefer not doing.

    When I try to open an .ai/pdf file received through my email, it won't open and asks for a password. I have never set up any kind of password for email security, but have tried typing in my standard passwords. Nothing works. I wonder if it has anything to do with the use of my Wacom3 Tablet...I've been having trouble with it and was getting the same message when trying to open the User's Manual in my Applications/WacomTablet file on my hard drive. Any suggestions? I just downloaded the latest version for the Wacom and recently upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.7 (which I hate, and my CS3 hates, etc.)

    It sounds like you have a a password-protected PDF. The password was set by the person who encoded it.

  • I've been banned received an apologetic email from Apple with a link attached but upon attempt to login I was again denied

    My Apple ID has been banned with no email explaining why. Odd right? We'll, even more odd is the apology from Apple which looks like this:
    Well ok I was going to copy and paste, but my iPhone 5c won't allow it. I even took a pic and it offers copy or define I select copy, return here and My options are select/select all to copy not paste. I used the icon at the bottom left as a different route, same result. I brought my phone to Apple yesterday and springboard software issues again. For the 2nd time in 6 weeks the phone was wiped and software reloaded. Same issues only worse. They promised to replace it next time. Here's the deal: that would mark replacement number 9 for this line over a 6 month span...I also would like to know who do I ask or report the fact that I've received zero Genius Bar receipts displaying work done for any of the 8 previous replacements &amp; these 2 tech support services. I like to document &amp; keep stuff like this. It's important. Well this has become 2 questions in one. Thanks in advance to all who take time to read this &amp; respond.
    For the hosts here's the link I was sent via the apologetic email:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6035608

    Your title says you received an apologic email but then your first post says you did not receive an email.
    What exactly have you been banned from? Was it these forums or something else?

  • Receiving text and email notifications while on call

    While I'm on a call, I receive text and email notifications (by a sound and a buzz). Is there a way to shut this off, as it's annoying when there are multiple messages coming through.

    Sure; go to settings > sounds and set "new text" and "new VM" to off.
    Of course this turns them off ALL the time; your only choice ( I am sure there is a hack for this oversight out there somewhere, though)
    This is not a business class smartphone ; its an iPhone.

  • I've received a gmail email from Microsoft account team saying We detected something unusual about a recent sign-in to the Microsoft account ******* To help keep you safe, we required an extra security challenge. I then asks to follow link and sign in

    Please help because since I've received an email from Microsoft warning they have detected suspicious activity on our Microsoft email account (wasn't even aware my gmail account had anything to do with Microsoft) I have been receiving other odd emails which consist of one or two huge lines of text in bright blue, usually to do with debt or one the Grand National and betting. These emails do no appear to be addressed to me but I'm still receiving them. I have put them all into the Junk Folder (by the way is that the same as reporting them as spam on and iPhone or iPad?)
    I'm still concerned about this Microsoft email though. It advises that we need to give some extra security information for them to be able to protect us in future (which initially looked to me as if it may be a phishing email). If I follow the link it takes me to a page that looks fairly official and could well be Microsoft, I then asks me to sign in using username and password.
    To be honest Im not sure I even have a Microsoft username or password and I'm concerned even if I did know it, whether I should be filling in that information or not? Also what's likely to happen once I've signed in? I'm concerned that once I had entered their site they would just be phishing for more information?
    Just in case there is any relevance around about the time of receiving this email I and performed two fairly unusual actions.
    1.  I contacted an American company to ask if they would sell something to the UK.
    2.  I started using Keychain on my iPhone and iPad and signed in to all the shops and sites I use with my usual password and changed them all the keychain suggested passwords.
    Typical trying to make myself safer and yet I'm now concerned I could be in danger. 
    Please can someone advise me on what I should do about this email, i,e, is it a phishing mail and should I Junk it or should I answer it and try and sign in and if I should answer it how do I know what my Microsoft sign in and password is? 
    Also can someone tell me how I report spam on my iPhone and iPad in a gmail account?
    Sorry I've rattled on so much and I'm asking so many questions but they are all connected.

    It doesn't.  Gmail is owned by Google.

  • How come someone else is receiving my icloud emails?

    I just found out that someone else is receiving my icloud emails. I tried to make a dinner reservation and gave my icloud email address, nothing turned up so I called them and they said that someone with the same name as me called 5 minutes before to say they had received the confirmation email. I checked the address i entered online and it was correct, so someone else is receiving my mail. On checking back to my inbox, I haven't received a mail for about a week!! I can send mail, checked this by sending to my Gmail account, but someone else with the same name is receiving my mail, what can I do?

    Hi Cammalitos,
    If you are concerned about the security of your iCloud email account, and based on what you state it sounds like you should be, you should change the password for that Apple ID and iCloud account (they are the same) using the steps provided here -

  • When I receive appointments by email and accept them they go into the enourage "on my mac" ical calendar which is not synced with mobileme.  How do I change where appointments are put ?

    When I receive appointments by email and accept them they go into the enourage "on my mac" ical calendar which is not synced with mobileme.  How do I change where appointments are put ?
    Or how can I choose where the appointment is put ?
    I use the mobileme sync services so the ical calendars that are synced are those in the "[email protected]" group.
    Please help !
    Nick

    Actually you can't drag the appointment to ano calendar - its says "You can’t make changes to this invitation., Only the organiser can change this event"
    Also if you double click on the received appointment and open the window the only calendars shown that you can select are the 'on my mac" ones, and not the sync'd ones.
    Any ideas welcome !!
