Cyber Thieves Steal Entire E-Mail Accounts
A new type of online crime is occurring, but this may be something that e-mail users can't do anything to resolve.More here.
WBAL-TV 11 News I-Team reporter Mindy Basara said criminals are stealing e-mail accounts and using them to get into personal business and finances. Basara said many e-mail services wouldn't help you get your account back.
Lisl Moyer spent hours trying to undo a mistake she said she wouldn't make again. She accessed her Hotmail account on a public computer and believes she forgot to log out. The next time she tried to log onto Hotmail, she couldn't because her password had been changed.
"They had changed my secret question," Moyer said. "How they changed my secret question, I have no idea."
