Answer 1

The best thing to do is change ur mail id at once ! careful in future while u submit ur new mailid in the web.. that 's it

Answer 2

Well first, inform yur contacts of the situation so if they get some kinda mail, they can ignore it. Meanwhile u can try the forget password feature and try answering yur secret question or if u had entered a alternate address, u can mail the password. If all else fails, is either u make a new address and forget that one or make a report to yur account company eg if is Yahoo, call them. Laterz.

Answer 3

Your computer is part of a BOT network, somehow your inadvertly came across a worm or malware that's taken over your computer. A full system purge and re-install may be required to get free now, since most likely the malicious code has comprimised your system files. Attempt to do a system restore and go back to a save point before this trouble.

Answer 4

You might have a virus on your computer or one of your email contacts has one and your email address has been harvested from their address book.
