    Dumb confounded shock.
    And then, "I need to change my password NOW!"

    I guess somebody has been spying on you.

    Actually both Ari and I have been experiencing weird things lately.

    I had two women importuning me for cyber sex.
    I've given them polite short shrift and fortunately they've stopped.
    I have no real idea how they could have got my email,
    but I fear it might have been via a chainmail poetry project initiated by a friend.

    If a hacker has your password, they can find a way into your bank account and all your private information.
    They can find your credit card and get you into unresolvable debt.

    Ari has had a stream of different unknown numbers ringing his mobile phone, and when he answers there's no one on the other end. This post was edited by inky at April 10, 2020 12:06 AM MDT

    ;/  :(

    I've sorted my glitch, and will refuse to participate in any e-chain-letters henceforth.

    Ari is thinking of trying his phone company to get a trace on this source that seems to keep using new numbers, and if that fails, he'll go to the Telecommunications Ombudsman.

      Bookworm, are you absolutely sure they’re actually women, and not some guy or some guys just posing as women?

    Think! I'm a millenial, I don't have to think! I have a computer with a million or more apps to do that for me.
