Email being hacked
Hey Guys/Gals -
I need your understanding on an email being hacked. My client had his Google account severely compromised about a year ago. His account was actually accessed from Siberia.
He recently was notified through a friend that he had received an email looking as if it came from him. This time, however, the email was not from his gmail account, they just used his name @central.ces.edu. He said some of the people it was sent to were from his contact list but not all.
Do you feel his gmail email account has been hacked or simply leftovers from the earlier event?
I did have him change his password.
What are your ideas and suggestions?
Thank you,
Mags
