Reporting someone using my name and email addresses?

This is how to secure a hacked account: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN3516.html

How do i email someone in russia?

You need a full email address to email someone. It doesn't matter what country they live in. There are many different email domains (what comes after the @ sign) in Russia, but they all end in .ru instead of .com.

As an example, if your friend lived in the United States, you wouldn't know if he was at gmail.com, or yahoo.com, or mail.com, would you? You'd need the whole email address to email him.

Hi,somebody is sending emails to my contacts using my email address to which I haven't sent. How can this be?

It's possible that this problem is caused by a computer virus or other malicious file or program, so I would suggest that you run both an antivirus scan, as well as an antispyware or antimalware scan, just to be sure that there aren't any infected files or programs on your computer that could be causing this.

If you need a free antivirus program, I would recommend that you try using Microsoft Security Essentials, which can be downloaded from the link below.

If you need a free antimalware program, I would suggest that you try using MalwareBytes, which can be downloaded from the link below.

Just so you know, I wouldn't suggest that you have more than one antivirus program installed on your computer at the same time, as they could end up conflicting with each other.

However, it is alright to have both an antivirus program and an antispyware or antimalware program installed on your computer at the same time.

Also, perhaps you should try using Mozilla FireFox, which is a free browser that is safer than Internet Explorer and can also be customized with a variety of free add-ons and themes. If you'd like to try using Mozilla FireFox, you can download it from the link below.

If you are unable to download or run any programs or are unable to find any malicious files or programs, perhaps you should boot your computer into Safe Mode with Networking, by restarting it and pressing F8 while it's booting up, and then trying to run the scans again.

Also, you may want to change your e-mail account's password and recovery questions again, to something only you would know, just to be on the safe side.

A secure password should contain both upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and even symbols, as a password containing all of these would be harder to guess than a regular word that could be found in a dictionary.

Good luck and I hope I helped you!

How do I bump someone else out of my email account?

That is a good question. First thing I would try is changing my recovery accounts passwords. If someone is changing your password sametime as you they must know your are doing it somehow and generally that would come from a notification, either by phone text or e-mail. If nothing you do works when changing the linked accounts and device credentials, contact the email company for assistance. They might be able to assist.

Something is sending out emails to my contacts, they are spam and I am not sending. How do I stop it?

this happens with hotmail too.
Your email is probably being spoofed by a spammer (they send spam email using your email address as the originator). That's why you're getting the failure notices.

First, you should determine that it isn't you sending the spam - to do this look at the email header from one of the delivery failure messages.

You're looking for entries somewhat like the following:


Received: from unknown (HELO p3presmtp01-07.prod.phx3.secureserver.ne... ([208.109.80.156])
(envelope-sender )
by smtp30.prod.mesa1.secureserver.net (qmail-1.03) with SMTP
for ; 8 Apr 2008 16:18:41 -0000
Received: (qmail 2999 invoked from network); 8 Apr 2008 16:18:41 -0000
Received: from e114.en25.com ([209.167.231.114])
(envelope-sender )
by p3presmtp01-07.prod.phx3.secureserver.ne... (qmail-ldap-1.03) with SMTP
for ; 8 Apr 2008 16:18:28 -0000



The very last Received: in the message header will be the originator of the email. If it's one of your machine names or has an IP in a range you use - the problem is in your machine. Remove it from your network and have it cleaned, it's infected.

If you don't recognize the name or IP range, the spammer is using your email address to send and there's very little you can do about stopping it from happening.

You could notify the organization responsible for hosting the particular IP that's sending the spam email.

Why is Russian Romanization so different from the alphabets of Latin-based Slavic alphabets such as Czech and Croatian?

It is not necessarily that different, only when people Romanize Russian in a system that is based on the pronunciation of their own language, which is, unfortunately, the norm. So, in the English-speaking world Russian “ш” is Romanized as “sh”, because that is how it sounds like for native speakers of English and how they would normally write down that sound. And speakers of German use “sch”, speakers of Dutch use “sj”, et cetera.There is also a so-called “scientific system” that uses for example “š” for “ш” and “č” for “ч”, which is of course how Czechs and Croats would represent the corresponding sounds.

Is it safe to give someone your bank account number to make a deposit?

Many people believe that your account number and routing number are secure information that must be protected, shredded, and not printed in full on statements. However, these numbers are plainly written on every check you write. Everyone you’ve ever given a check to has your account number. For that matter, the routing numbers can be looked up easily online.If bank security relied on the secrecy of account numbers, it would be very insecure indeed. Guarding your account number can be considered “defense in depth”. That is: your account is secure even if your account number is public, but why make anything easier for thieves?What is important that you never give anyone your PIN, online password, or telephone security code. This is where the real security starts. You don’t give these out to anyone. They are not required to transfer money or make deposits, and anyone who claims to need them is likely a criminal.Back to deposits (and withdrawals, for that matter). If you give someone (such as your employer or a biller) your account number, they can make deposits and withdrawals as surely as if you had given them a physical check. What makes this work is that the other party has a real address and bank account that can be charged back if something goes wrong. If some guy with your account number tries to get cash, it’s not going to work. But again, why give out your account number to some guy.TL;DR: Don’t worry about giving your account number to billers, employers, taxing authorities, and people you write checks to. At the same time, don’t put it on a billboard, publish it in the newspaper, or give it to distant relatives, online lovers, or Nigerian princes. Never give your PIN, online password, or telephone code to anyone.EDITED:Two exceptions to “Don’t give your password to anyone”:1) Password Managers are a great idea, and are essential for securing your online accounts. Understand how they work: your passwords are encrypted and decrypted on your own computer, and the server only stores passwords encrypted by a master password that only you know.2) Some legitimate banking services allow you to enter all your passwords, so they can generate a consolidated statement showing your assets at all banks. This requires a level of trust in their security that I’m not usually willing to give.

Different Between Yahoo And Email?

One is a phrase the other is a virtual form of mail.

Security: If someone gets a very good copy of my signature (in ink), is that a problem?

Banks don't use signatures as iron-clad authentication. Signatures vary too much, even while staying fairly consistent, for a bank to notice that you've signed a document slightly different from one check to another. I have problems keeping the ending "h" in my last name from disappearing - it wants to look more like an "l" with a squiggle on the end, so I'm glad my bank hasn't noticed that "h" is morphing into something else.That said, your signature should be more than just your name written out in something like cursive. My signature is highly stylized with the shapes of some of the letters exaggerated and more horizontal movement than what it should have. The result is a signature that can't be forged without a lot of practice. Your signature should be immune to all but serious attempts at forgery.
