Just testing.
My cloud/web based AT&T e-mail address book was hacked.
AT&T now has e-mail servers run by Yahoo. Drat!
Yahoo has a gaping security hole. My PW was not
hacked, but my address book in "cloud" storage was
used to send out spam. It was not a full copy of my
real address book, but enough to cause me much
damage control effort today.
All PWs have been changed yet again to be sure, but the
cloud address book has also been deleted. So much for web-
based or cloud based address books. Back to local PC
and iPhone only address books for me. No iCloud either.
MY DEEPEST AND SINCERE APPOLOGIES TO ALL!
I am embarrassed.
My first and only hack in 20+ years of e-mail. So I guess
I was overdue. Yahoo/AT&T today. When will G-Mail get hit? :- )
Life in a modern spam rich world.
