<div dir="ltr"><div>hi all,</div><div><br></div><div>I have also been the recipient and the "sender" of such emails -- my apologies if you got one from me!</div><div><br></div><div>I did come across one way to help the problem. While logged on to the tapped email, go to the extensions or add-ons in your browser settings. From there, look for the addition of any new programs and first disable and then delete anything new that you don't recognize (i.e., that you did not install on purpose). That seems to have helped. I found a "flipora" that was "activated" and deleted that and I thiiiiiink that the problem is fixed. I also went to the website where you can choose to be eliminated from either receiving or sending emails and I have not received any more.</div><div><br></div><div>I hope this helps! It feels like we're always one step behind the hackers, huh?! </div><div><br></div><div>best wishes,</div><div>Beth</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Oct 22, 2014 at 4:47 PM, Alice Choyke <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:choyke@ceu.hu" target="_blank">choyke@ceu.hu</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Dear Melanie,<div> Well, I checked the inner mailing list and I have even gotten invitations from myself. The list is certainly one source but my father and oldest non-academic friend in the States has also been a multiple recipient. I have pestered the IT people about this but until the long four day holiday is over in Hungary nothing will change - even if it is possible to change. I did run a full one day scan on my home computer and the IT people at school ran a check on my e-mail account there and both came up clean. Perhaps I need to change my CEU address and decommission the old one? One thing for sure - it is a huge waste of time for me and very annoying for all of you having to delete this dangerous nonsense.</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>Alice</div></div><div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Oct 22, 2014 at 11:33 PM, Melanie Langbein <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mlangbeinarch@yahoo.de" target="_blank">mlangbeinarch@yahoo.de</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;padding-left:1ex;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid"><div><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:HelveticaNeue,Helvetica Neue,Helvetica,Arial,Lucida Grande,sans-serif;font-size:16px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><div><span>Dear Alice, <br></span></div><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:HelveticaNeue,Helvetica Neue,Helvetica,Arial,Lucida Grande,sans-serif;font-size:16px;font-style:normal;background-color:transparent"><br><span></span></div><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:HelveticaNeue,Helvetica Neue,Helvetica,Arial,Lucida Grande,sans-serif;font-size:16px;font-style:normal;background-color:transparent"><span>I might be sharing your problem.

My e-mail has <b>not</b> been hacked nor have I suddenly gone insane. Apparently there are industrial size robotic
operations that pick up e-mails and then start to work out the places those e-mails go and send these sinister exploratory e-mails looking for data from the recipients which I hope you have all been smart enough to delete instantly.
