Bogus emails from tinman

[Tinman]

Is anyone getting bogus emails that seem to come from me, tinman1332 from my aol address? I have recently changed my password but want to make sure the problem is stopped. If you have received such an email, could you please post the date from the mail.

If anyone has opened such an email (contents are unknown to me) and it has caused you any problems, I am very sorry. I always use a subject line that is directly associated with the content of the mail. I never send anything that says "Hi" or some other casual greeting and I never send an email subject line that says you have to see this or other such come-on trash. So please beware.

on a similar note my wife had her aol email account hacked into it was used by scammers and junk mail senders to send as we was informed by aol thousands of messages
she only found out when she was locked out by aol as a security measure and had to get them to reset the account once she had spoken to them in person
don't know if aol is easier to hack than other providers

I received two of them - the last one came in about a week ago! I didn't open them, as the subject was just something strange like "Hi!"....

Thanks Kay (and sorry). If anyone has received one in the last couple of days, please let me know and I'll go to an even more complicated password.
