My wife's e-mail account has been hacked. We know this only because
several undeliverable notices are coming in. The messages are in
Russian or Ukranian. How do we know this? Google translate.
How do we stop this? Change the password on the account? Or are there
other steps to take. This has never happened to us before.
Thanks.
Yes, change the password. If desktop computers, as opposed to mobile
devices, are involved, I'd run a Malwarebytes scan. I don't know what
one does when a mobile device is potentially infected, as I haven't had
that happen. I've been hacked before on AOL mail and changed the
password. As an aside, I was about to give up on using antivirus
software on our desktop computers, as they are invasive. Instead, I got
360 Total Security and am very satisfied.
