By KeepingTheAceMemory_Deb on June 18th, 2013 at 06:06:05 PM Never thought it would happen to me – but someone has hacked my yahoo email address.
SO if you get an email from me (Deb) that has a YAHOO address – do not open.
I’m so sorry for this.
An email went out today (June 18) that was supposedly from me, SUBJECT: FW: Deb
Text read “How are you?” (with a link).
THAT IS NOT FROM ME!
Darn…
