I got a link from a contact that doesn't have computer access only messenger
access on her phone as the computer crashed. it is saying watch ma new
photos (P) here: http://Ohhh-Its-You.com/?gallery= and it has her address in
this space. I encountered this a few times in the past on XP and I am just
now getting this now. my question is how is this being sent? as I myself
haven't gone into any strange links lately or even password sites. and no one
has gotten these from me. so I am just wondering where it is comming from.

Greetings Skywolfe,

This is (probably) just another one of those people who've given out their account
credentials to a phisher who's sending out links on her behalf. It has nothing to do with
you and everything to do with her.

As per:
http://messengergeek.spaces.live.com...DA1!2285.entry

She needs to change her password:
https://account.live.com/ChangePassword.aspx

And a quick lesson from you on how not to give out her password to every web form that
decides to ask

Hi,

A computer isn't required to give out your credentials, trust me

I wouldn't be half surprised if some of these worms end up living on smartphone's themselves
in the next few years.
