What's this all about ?
 

I logged on today to find I had 12 "Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender" in my yahoo email inbox. Apparently someone called Aleksey sent these emails using my email address which I've blocked out in red and black in the attached pic of 1 of the returned emails.

The emails are not all exactly the same, the host underneath where it says "The SMTP Server program" is different and the "Final-Recipient: rfc822;" are different but they're all .ru addresses.

I'm always very wary of anything russian, just worried maybe 1 of the fuckers has hacked my email or something.

Any chance of making the attachment a bit bigger mate, it's too small for me to read.

I had something similar happen a while ago to my work mail address. When I spoke to IT security they weren't worried, reckoned someone had just spoofed my address to make it look like mails they'd sent out had come from me and that there was no chance that these people actually had access to my mailbox.

edit in - ignore the first bit :kid:

done.

Here you go Pen, there's a bit more info here:
