I was recently phished by a very convincing fake iCloud notification, telling me I was running out of space (likely).(Even the email address was credible.)
As a result many people were emailed about a trip I was supposedly paying to Manila. I caught this quite fast and changed my password. Then I found that a redirect had been placed in my mail sending copies of my messages to drwilsnook216-at-gmail.com I took out the redirect, which has not been changed back since. But now I find my contacts has been emptied. This seems to be a particularly unpleasant phasing attack. Has anyone else been through this? Can you suggest ways forward. I have a Time Machine backup of my contacts, if I can access it. A few days ago, however, I started getting the message "The disk image "Ranulph's MacBook Air.sparsebundle" is in use. I am asked to eject it, but I can't find it. I was going to deal with this but now I'm forced to. The Time Machine problem started before the phishing. I've rebooted the computer. I'd appreciate any and all help! Best Wishes, Ranulph -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Sussex Mac User Group" group.
