I have the paid version of AVG on my computer. A colleague on my gmail contact list in Germany believes that adjustments were made to his email account by my hacker. Thought you might be interested in these excerpts from his emails
I recommend, that you check carefully your mail account and advise your friends to do so as well. I am using Thunderbird as my mail client system and when I started to write this mail, I found that I had all a sudden a new mail account in the system called <[email protected]>news I deleted immediately this user account, because I think it could be used for this kind of attack. For your information I copy you below the content of the mails I received or wrote in this matter. The e-mail address for replies was [email protected] ---------------------------------- thank you for your reply. 1. I called the phone number, but it was only ringing and no reply. I heard about critical numbers. So before I called, I checked the country code and area code which in bothe cases were correct for Spain and Madrid. 2. I discovered the new user account, installed by your hacker, by the fact, that I use Thunderbird as my mail system, in which I have installed 2 accounts for me provided by 2 different service providers: - compuserve - and t-online When I write an e-mail, I can select the sender e-mail address with Thunderbird. So usually I use t-online.de for specific things and compuserve as my primary mail account. Writing mail to you in reply to your "help me mail" I discovered suddenly 3 sender mail-addresses in thelist instead of 2. So I went through "extras" => "account information" => "account actions" => "delete" and deleted this undesired entry in the list. In reality I think that this hacker attack is part of the attacks on Google out of China!!! And we were lucky having only been attacked by the first year students of the Chinese govermental hacker institution.
