[Noisebridge-discuss] Kayla, your account is sending spam

Kayla,

Your account on AOL has been used to send spam to many people in your
contact list.  Spam from your account was sent to Noisebridge three
times this week.

The spam was sent using your account by IPs in Argentina, UAE, and
Lithuania.

Probably the password you used on AOL was too easy to guess, or you
typed it on a computer with a keylogger installed.

To prevent further spam from going to the list, I deleted your
subscription to Noisebridge mailing lists.

Please change your password on AOL and ensure that you have reset any
"verification questions" or "recovery addresses" that the spammers may
have added to your account.  Also be more careful in the future to
choose hard-to-guess passwords, and only type your password on computers
that do not have keyloggers installed.

Please feel free to re-subscribe to the Noisebridge mailing lists after
you have fixed the spam problem.

Good luck,
-andy
