My personal email seems to have been hacked over night. Bit strange really I have changed my password, but the security I had to go through was extensive and to be honest for someone else to go through that and get access to my email account must really know me very well. It's a bit unnerving I not worried about my banking as I don't think they can access my financial details it's more stuff like fab that is linked to my email. |

I think so I had to got to hotmail and verify my account details I'm quite tech savvy. My email password was changed at 00:40 this morning just very peculiar this account isn't linked to anything financial or business it's purely personal |

Get yourself signed up to one of the credit agencies, think the cost is around £3.99 a month. They will alert you when someone does a search on you
Also tells you about you email and password, if it has been used, or if someone tried to use it
I have changed my password several times now after I was informed my details were sold to the dark web, not sure what the dark web is but it doesnt sound good lol
Hope this helps |

Thanks about your reply yeah I understand about details being sold on the dark web but this would be the wrong email account for that. To be honest this feels a little more personal and closer to home |

Might just be random then.
I think they suggest changing all other passwords just in case.

You can always log into hotmail and in the settings see where it been logging into or attempt to have been, then just disable all other active logins |

"I was wondering ex or snoopy kids lol "
Sound more like an ex material... Once I had an ex come up to me in town and asked why I had changed all my passwords, was it really not that obvious ? |
