Receiving spam email using my id

Since Apple's service had been hacked
I received a spam email using my ID with the message below. It had send to everyone @me.com accounts. I had looked at the raw header. Should I change my password or should I do something about it?

Spam is all over the place. Receiving the odd message is nothing to worry about. Changing your password won't stop you receiving spam. It's irritating, but if it's not too many messages just delete and ignore. If you start getting a flood of it then you may want to think about a spam-trap program.

  • I am receiving spam emails from my own email address and need to put a stop to it asap please.

    Hi as per above, for the last week I have been receiving spam emails from my own email address. Can anyone help me please to put a stop to this and also perhaps explain how it happened? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

    '''but not sure what you mean when you say I must not store it on my computer?'''
    I was just thinking that if someone or some software agent is accessing your computer then they also have access to saved passwords if for instance it is webmail and the password is stored on Firefox, or if you store logins and passwords in any other utility.
    '''I have asked my service provider again for help - waiting to hear from them. I don't store passwords in any other utility that I know of? Are passwords stored automatically somewhere on computers?'''
    An obvious thing to do is also make sure you log out of email and do not leave yourself logged in or use the remember me option.
    '''Yes, thank you, I always log out and never use the remember me option'''
    '''Thank you for your input. I did report this to my service provider and they assured me that no one is accessing my account?
    I wonder what they meant by that
    possibly that the account has been accessed only from your computer and the same IP Address has been shown
    Maybe just that the mail used your login and password.
    '''I have asked them to verify the above - thank you. :)'''
    What are the emails ? do they make sense, are they also sent to others ? and of course is it likely anyone else is using your computer and sending these emails.
    '''The emails make some sort of sense but not much. As far as I know I am the only one receiving them but just to be safe I deleted my Address Book. No one else has access to my computer - I am the only one who uses it. :(('''
    it is probably worth contacting them again, give a couple of examples of the emails you are referring to and tell them that you yourself did not type those emails. Ask if they can explain how this may have happened.
    '''Done and awaiting their response. :) Thank you'''
    As a general security measure it is also good practice
    to use a limited user account for day to day work not an admin account
    http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/windows_security_whynot_admin.mspx
    to set passwords up to login to your computer
    '''what is a limited user account? Also, I am now busy adding a password to my computer and making all files private through User Accounts. Would that help do you think?'''
    http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/usercpl_create_password.mspx
    (IIRC at one time by default XP setup an Administration account with a nul default password, an F8 reboot would get you in by just using the return key when the password prompt showed ) P.S. as mentioned method 3 in this article http://www.slideshare.net/passexpert/six-methods-to-crack-windows-admin-password-remove-unknown-windows-admin-password. Rather a serious security hole.
    '''"oooh, sorry, the above paragraph is way past my limited knowledge? Will read the article again and get back to you. Thank you so much for your help so far. :)'''

  • I am received spam email in my inbox not Junk-mail

    Hello ,

    i am facing problem ,all users received spam email in inbox not Junk mail
    what to do to avoid this ?
    I want when the user receives a spam I want to go to junk-email not inbox.
    thanks

    Hi,
    Thanks for your detailed configuration steps.
    As the Anti-Spam workflow article, I suggest double check whether the “spamhuas” in the IP Allow List.
    1. Connection Filtering
    IP Allow List -> IP Block List -> Safe Provider List -> IP Block Provider’s RBL
      1) If sender IP in IP Alllow List, the message flow to Sender filtering directly. If not, it flows to IP Block List.
      2) If sender IP in IP Block List, the message is rejected and applied no other filters. If not, it flows to Safe Provider List.
      3) If spamhaus in Safe Provider List, the message flow to Sender filtering directly. If not, it flows to IP Block Provider List.
      4) If in IP Block Provider’s RBL, the message is rejected and applied no other filters. If not, it flows to Sender filtering.
    2. Sender Filtering
    Please add spam senders into Blocked Sender and select “Reject message” action.
    3. Content Filtering
    Please configure the Custom Words, “Allow messages containing these words or phrases:” and “Block messages containing these words or phrases (messages containing words or phrases listed above will not be blocked):”.
    Thanks

  • Problem Adding iCal Events Received via Email (used to work fine)

    My wife and I share iCal calendar events between our Mac's via email. A month or so ago I started getting this error when clicking on the link that comes with the iCal event email:
    "This calendar file is empty. No new events have been added to your iCal calendars."
    We are both on Intel Powermacs running OS 10.4.11 and have the same version of iCal (2.0.5). I can still email her iCal events and she can add them to her calendar just fine. But anything she sends me gives me this error.
    Help?

    Travis,
    I had the exact same problem (with my wife's iCal account to boot ). The solution lies in the "(null) informs you..." It turns out that iCal looks at your personal address card to figure out who you are when populating the email. So, if don't have the email address you are sending FROM listed under your address book entry, then the notice is from NULL.
    I added my wife's email accounts to her address book entry on her machine (sorry for the bolds, but the details count.) Then I tried sending a calendar event from her iCal to me. This time it populated with her name and it added to my calendar just fine when I received the email.
    I hope this solution works for you (it drove me crazy for about two weeks.)

  • How to receive HTML email using JAVA Mail API?

    Hello!
    I am developing WEB Mail System. There is a little problem. I am unable to receive mail in HTML format. The mail is being received in only text format currently. What method do i need to use to achieve this functionality currently i am using
    MimeMessage message = mail.getMessage();
    if(message.isMimeType("text/plain")){
    String str_message_body = message.getContent().toString();
    else
    Multipart multipart = (Multipart)message .getContent();
    Kindly advise me regarding that because i am in a state of fix right now and unable to proceed further.
    I will really appreciate a prompt response from you.
    Regards,
    Burhan Ramay.

    HTML is a text format too, so you do
    if(message.isMimeType("text/html")){
    String str_message_body = message.getContent().toString();
    }

  • Spam email on wrong addresses

    The problem is that the same email are arrived by unknown addresses ON a unknown addresses!! Yes, the receiver addresses aren't mine but however I received the mails on my icloud account!!
    Why? How i can do for resolve this problem?
    Maybe the accout was violated?
    Thanks in advance.

    Something is miserably broken with Verizon's mail filters.  A large portion of the email THAT I WANT AND/OR NEED is blocked yet the garbage email messages are sent through.
    I cannnot send email using any program other than the web page.  I used to be able to send email from my phone and from outlook on my computer, but something changed on their side as the outgoing mail server no longer recognizes me.  It says that my password is incorrect, yet I am able to log into the email system to get my mail.  I have been using the internet for over 20 years (yes, I know, I was working with a startup ISP in 1994, I am old).  I know how to configure SMTP and POP mail clients.

  • Can send but not receive comcast emails with Verizon MIFI jetpack

    I am unable to receive comcast email using outlook 2007 using my new Verizon MIFI4620L Jetpack. When I disconnect from the Jetpack, I am able to receive emails using my neighbor's wireless router. I am able to send email using the MIFI Jetpack. When I test email settings, I am able to connect to comcast and send a test email. I am able to receive the test email from Microsoft. I am able to access email using the internet at comcast.net and I am able to use web browsers using the Mifi device. My other laptop is able to receive and send emails using the MIFI device. I currently have uninstalled Norton Internet Security and disabled windows firewall on the problematic computer in an attempt to resolve this.
    Any ideas?

    There seems to be alot of Comcast email issues with the MiFi 4620L.  Most of them have been resolved with the propper configuration.  We have already found a few limitations to certain websites with this device, but none have been confirmed to be related to email services so far.
    Some helpful sites I found:
    http://www.emailquestions.com/email-program-setup-configuration/1180-setup-comcast-email-outlook-2007-a.html
    http://customer.comcast.com/help-and-support/internet/configure-outlook-2007-to-use-port-587/
    http://forums.comcast.com/t5/E-Mail-and-Xfinity-Connect-Help/E-Mail-Client-Settings-customer-generated/td-p/778889
    See if a quick configuration check will resolve your issues from the links I have provided.  If not then the next best step may be reinstalling Outlook on your computer.  Keep us posted either way.

  • Spam email bypasses server to iMail

    I have been receiving spam email in junk mail folder that does not appear on Verizon server

    How many emai accounts do you have? How many of them are setup in Mac Mail?
    Have you looked into the Junk or Spam Folder on the Web Mail system for Verizon?
    If you only have one account and it is from Verizon then they are coming from the Verizon servers and being originally delivered to your Verizon Email Address.

  • Reporting spam emails from Apple

    Hi
    I have been receiving spam emails from someone who would like me to believe they are from Apple. Clearly not as they're full of spelling mistakes, plus they have ended up in my Spam folder.
    I would like to inform Apple but am struggling to find relevant contact details.
    Any suggestions who I should contact / how to deal with this?
    Thanks, Tanya

  • Hi, I just received an email stating that my Apple ID was just used

    Hi, I just received an email to my private gmail that my Apple ID was used  to buy an app from the Apple Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with my Apple ID. The link sent allegedly to cancel the transaction, requires my credit card details. Is it a spam? Thanks a lot in advance for the clarification

    Sounds like a scam to me or rather phishing and I would expect it to want your CC details .Hope you haven't responded
    They are all over the world I get 2 or 3 a week similar  from " Apple "

  • I received spam using Firefox as my browser from Fed Ex; it carried a virus; instantly an $89.99 protection plan was forced on me; don't like sales like that.

    I have Kapersky Antivirus and do not need to spend $89.99 on whatever program Mozilla is promoting. First of all, I don't expect spam from Fed Ex and should not have opened the e-mail (which looked authentic and I do order with Fed Ex delivery); however, your loop kept taking me back to the high pressure sale of your Shield antivirus program. Nice that I found out the e-mail was contaminated, but please no high pressure sales or scares. My own program handled it for me.

    Firefox does not have anything to do with your email or spam you may have received. Firefox is simply a browser that you use to access your email (Email is managed by people like AOL, Gmail, etc.). And if you received an email trying to sell you software, that came from a third party that is spamming you.
    Shield Anti-virus sounds like it may be part of a family of rogue anti-viruses. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogue_security_software http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogue_security_software]. So, it sounds like you may have an infection on your machine if you installed this program. Also, if you provided your credit card to the anti-virus, the integrity of your credit card number is at stake.
    [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]] provides some resources you can use to help eradicate this virus.

  • Cannot send or receive email using Thunderbird, but can get it just fine on Verizon server.

    Every time Mozilla/Thunderbird does a major upgrade I have a problem with sending and receiving my email. When trying to send an email, I get the message:
    "An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: 5.7.1 Missing or literal domains not allowed. Please verify that your email address is correct in your Mail preferences and try again."
    Using my regular email password, I am able to get my email from the Verizon server just fine. It simply will not work with Thunderbird. Every time there is a major upgrade I spend hours and hours with Verizon techs with them trying to figure out what is wrong. Yesterday was one such day and we looked at EVERYTHING and no reason could be found for the problem. The tech concluded that the problem had to be with Thunderbird and that I should re-enstall it!!!! I don't have time to reinstall it! Somehow it has been fixed before but we don't even know how.

  • I've just received an email from 'Apple' saying that my apple id was used      to sign into iCloud on an iphone 5s.  I have an iphone 4.  It's asking me to sign in to confirm my details and change my password.  How do I know if this email is genuine?

    I've just received an email from 'Apple' saying that my apple id was used to sign into iCloud on an iphone 5S.  I have an iphone 4.  It then asks that I 'click here' to confirm my details and change my password.  How do I tell if the email is genuine?

    Apple will not ask you to click a link in an email. They may tell you to log in to your account to reset your password. Go to https://appleid.apple.com and log in if you ever want to change any information in your profile (or your password). And do not click the link I just posted; instead enter it into a browser.
    You can verify the devices assigned to your account by going to https://icloud.com/find (again, don't click it), where you can see a list of devices registered to your Apple ID.
    As a general rule, you should never click a link in an email or forum post without verifying it first. You can see where it goes without clicking it in most email programs and browsers by hovering your mouse pointer over it. On an iPhone you can check where it goes by holding your finger on the link (rather than just tapping it).

  • I have BIS but can't surf, send/receive email, use apps

    i have BB Curve 8520. My BIS was running smoothly (sending and receiving emails real time and surfing the net through BIS), until i noticed when i tried to reply to an email that came in, it won't send. i noticed that it's fluctuating. i was able to send the email after a few minutes... then a few minutes later, i received a replied email from my friend, and when i tried to send my reply, i wasn't able to. also, i can't surf using the browser with the "internet browser" as default. i tried using my wifi and then suddenly all my emails started coming in, all emails that were not able to go through hours ago. my big question was why do i need to turn on wifi just to receive emails. but since i had my BIS for 2 months now, i can send and receive emails and surf through BIS itself without turning on the wifi.  also, i can't use any of my apps like facebook, twitter, yahoo messenger, etc.  They used to work fine with BIS... but now, i have to turn on the wifi connection, so i could log in with them.  aren't these supposed to be running through BIS only?
    I have GPRS on top, not gprs. my carrier says i have active data plan/BIS. but under Services Status..it says Blackberry Internet Service:  Connection:  not connected...
    so, i wiped out my BB and deleted all third party apps. when this was done, i received emails telling me "Your handheld has been registered with the wireless network" and even got "Activation Server" emails telling me that the emails that i have previously set up are now up and running. so i thought my BB is now ok.. i tried surfing, it was okay. after like about 5 minutes, it was down again. tried sending email but can't... i turned on the wifi and boom! the emails started coming in again.i have the Host Routing Tables and my Service Books in my BB. I have GPRS (not gprs) on top which means i have active BIS.  i have registered my HRTs several times... and resending my service books... same thing...
    the big mystery is when i turn on the wifi, the emails suddenly go through and i can send emails. i can open apps that used to only run on BIS. this is ok i guess, but i could never do any of these if i'm not connected to wifi.
    my sister and i have the same BB... i removed my sim and inserted it to her BB and the BIS worked fine... i was able to surf and use apps.. but when i put my sim back on my phone, the problem still exists.  i even used a different sim card that is also subscribed to BIS/data plan, and it still has the same problem... my guess is my carrier is right that my data plan is working ok and that my handheld itself has the problem... 
    i updated my OS, same problem.. wiped it out... used BBSAK, reinstalled OS... numerous battery pulls... same thing... i can receive the HRTs and service books, but after that can't do anything else like i used to... (send/receive emails, use apps like facebook, twitter, ym, etc., can't surf with internet browser - except when wifi is on everything else work fine even emails and apps).. 
    i would really appreciate your help guys.. thanks!
