[PaQSO] Hijacked eMail Addresses

About two weeks ago my e-mail was hijacked and e-mails sent out about a 
Channel 10 news story (bogus) about great work at home opportunities. I 
could tell from the e-mails it went to that it originated from the e-mail on 
my cell phone.
The really scary aspect is that it could have been child pornography or bomb 
threats sent out under my e-mail. After I was arrested and the story hit the 
newspapers, I know that a computer security expert could have shown that 
they did not really come from me. But the "he did not really do it" story 
would have spread much slower and to fewer people than the "child 
pornographer caught" story.
This is a very serious threat folks!
