...Potential Hacking alert


Folk I just want to alert you to this - there is an email going around at the moment purporting to be from us - it is not - I can show you a screen capture here above of a portion of what one of them looks like.

This is not from us.

I am making all necessary investigations to see where this comes from and to have it stopped. My advice so far is that my email has not been hacked, but that it is made up to look as if it is coming from my email.

I will let you all know what I find out, but in the meantime, please do not respond to this email if you get one.

  4. A couple of posts have shown up in my Feedly from the Sketch Challenge blog with the same name on them, Claire, so I assumed that had been hacked... but also assumed you would already know :/... sorry, should have let you know sooner... hope you can get it all sorted!! xxx

  6. Hi Claire
    Having a Malaysian mother, I recognise this as Bahasa Malay or Indonesia and appears to be about house design (my Bahasa is somewhat limited lol!)
    Thanks for the warning.

  7. Thanks for the warning and sorry that you are into this! As I can see from the subject, it's in malay language so the possible countries are Indonesia or Malaysia! Good luck!

  8. I received that email! Thank goodness I was smart enough to actually look at the email content to know that content was jibberish so I didn't click on it.

  9. I've had three over the last couple of days Claire. They're obviously not from you so the delete key is getting its usual workout. Sorry you have it to deal with, though :o(
