Good point It has happened once that I have been "locked out" of my account. Emails are also being sent to addresses that I do not recognize. We have run scans and our computer finds nothing. Perhaps we could try the program you suggested. I change my password and use a combination of all of those things. But I can probably make it harder. It is just so annoying and I don't know what else to do.
I do NOT want to close this account, but if it keeps happening, I just might have to. Other peoples receiving email, apparently sent by you, doesnt mean you have been hacked just means your email address has been discovered and mail is being sent out that appears to come from you. Ask the peoples concerned to examine the actual email headers, which will show who is actually sending them.
My email is actually being used to send links to people. It is my email id in the address bar when my coworkers email me to tell me that I've been hacked.
No matter how often or how hard i change my password this just seems to keep happening and it's been very frequent over the last two months. I'd say at least four times so far that I can think of the top of my head. The risk of having your email account or other services hacked is increasing, but there are some things you can do to prevent it. The humble password is not as secure as it used to be, but choosing a strong password can help.
The longer the password the better. The more characters there are in your password the longer it will take for a hacker to break it, making it less likely they will continue trying. Use a mixture of numbers, lowercase and uppercase letters and special characters punctuation as it increases the complexity of your password and increases its strength.
Do not use real words in your passwords. The majority of hacking attacks cycle through dictionary words, which means if you use a real word in your password it is more likely to be broken. The best passwords are a randomly generated strings of characters numbering 16 or more. Of course, that makes them very difficult to remember. To solve the issue of trying to remember long complex passwords, password managers like LastPass or 1Password can help, storing all your passwords in a secure place, ready to fill in any login you need right in your browser.
By using a password manager you are only as secure as the password to your password manager. Remembering one really complex and long password is a lot easier than remember 10 or 20 of them, however.
