Ugh! Once again I got an email from a friend with no subject line and I quickly clicked on a link.
As soon as I did, I realized I shouldn’t have. What aggravation!
My friend called me to warn me but it was too late. I changed my password and notified everyone in my address book.
Today I noticed the red bell on Yahoo! mail that indicates a notification. There was a little three beside it. I followed the notices and see that Yahoo! kindly let me know that someone in Mexico signed in on my accounts.
Who are these spiritual midgets who think this is a way to make a peso or who enjoy ticking people off? I do pity them.
The irritations of 21st century life.
