    Spam Email from MY Own Email Account

    I am getting inundated with SPAM that is spoofed to show me as the originator as well as being cc’d. It does only appear once.

    This is a Hotmail account and I use Samsung Native Client on a phone and a tablet, and Microsoft Client on PC’s.

    Any solutions?

    TIA

    First change your passwords starting with the email account. I’d change all of your passwords.

      And setup MFA for extra protection.
      With Multi-Factor Authentication (aka One Time Password), hackers not only need your password, they also need your phone - much more secure!
