The crackers/spammers/scammers have apparently just in the last few months
figured out that cracking a Webmail account* is MUCH easier than getting
into somebody's computer. I know personally (first-hand report from the
victim) of at least six such cracks since May.
I'll not repeat what's been written before, but PLEASE READ the file on this
threat:

File also posted on the Discussion group.
ABSOLUTELY BE CAREFUL AND TRUST NO ONE!
And as we've just seen, if you let your email get away from you, every
member of this group will be affected.
