If you opened a link in an email and now your Gmail (or other mail service)

-Has-Been-Hacked.html

Remember - do not open any link in an email if you are not sure it was
actually sent by the person from whom it seems to come from. I was caught
out about a month ago and I worked in computers for nine years. If I could
be caught anyone could! This is a very clever hack and I suspect some logic
in the hack send you a message based on the type of business it thinks you
may be in - I'm in the real estate business and got an email from another
realtor about "cheap properties" - I opened the link and next thing my Gmail
was hacked. It turns out that he didn't send it but perhaps he had opened
the same email. The purpose of the hacking is to send spam advertising. They
hack your account - your emails get disrupted and besides for sending their
advertising message to all the people in your address book -and then to all
those in all the recipients, if they open it, it does cause your Gmail
account to cease to function normally.
Items go to the deleted/trash folder via a filter place by the hack and you
miss important emails.

Btw. Please do NOT call me for advice on this hack - only call me if you
wish to buy or sell a home or make a donation to Hatzala Beit Shemesh! There
is enough info online on how to deal with this type of problem.
