RE: [Chrysler300] Email account hacked?

I think it is OK to post these reports of actions that are potentially damaging to the hobby and personal relationships.

I see this kind of hack from time to time and believe it to result from someone hacking, copying, packaging, selling e-mail address files. With a little study, the hacker can figure out relationships and start a scam.

It may be an old car guys’ tale but I read somewhere that if one enters a dummy e-mail address such as: !000!000@xxxxxxx in one’s address book, this will block or fend off a hacker. Can’t hurt—might help.

Stay aware and stay healthy, wealthy and wise.

I called and left Al a voicemail. He is probably fielding a ton of calls. The email address appears to be the correct one for Al. Maybe a computer geek can figure out where it really came from. Probably some bored kids.

If anyone has an alternate email address for Al Vannice, please let him know that his Comcast email account was probably hacked.

I received the odd message below to which I did not reply. I do not know him well enough to believe it was from him.
