Title: Email from IDH ??? Anybody else get this ?
Post by: nursey66 on September 06, 2014, 05:36:15 PM

I got an e-mail, says from ihatedialysia , at least that is the name as the sender. It just says "How are you/" and looks like it's been sent to a 19 other people. Anyone else ever get this ? Has the website been hacked ? they used my 1st name, not my IDH name. I am a bit concerned about thiis ,my 1st name is not part of my email, nor my IDH user name.

Sounds like someone is trying a name close to ours to hack your email. Ignore it. Send it to your spa, box.
Forward it to me please so I can see it.  End it to ksotoemail@yahoo.com

I tried to forward, my e-mail say it can't send it and to check the address. I did it several times. Have had problems sending to yahoo before. This is the link it was signed by after the message.  http://majestics.co.nz/zsvw/has.php?scxdi      It take you to Not Found !!  the beginning says From:ihatedialysis.

I just forwarded a copy to you.  MY anti virus wouldn't let me open the email.  Probably a virus maybe??

This was SPAM.  If anyone received this rest assured IHD.com did not send it.  I would put my name kitkatz on anything that is sent by an me as an admin.
I do not not do mass mailings of anything of this sort.

I get emails like that, that I believe come via Facebook because they are from people from highschool that I have no contact with (other than facebook) and they come to my work email.  Its my believe that someone is able to parse out e3mails from facebook and send random urls.  Usually the titles are "For iolaire", or something like that.
