A group of people keep IMing me. I think they have the wrong screen name, but they won't listen and keep IMing me! What should I do?

If you are using America Online's Instant Messenger, change your password immediately and don't accept messages from anyone you don't know. Make a note of their screen names and then block them.

AIMS is a hacker's paradise when it comes to being able to steal passwords from AIMS users. If they get it and you have an aol account with the same name (and the passwords are the same) they can hack into your aol account while you are offline and spam tons of people with trash e-mail, including porno links and it "all came from you".

They're pure evil I tell ya! Pure evil!!
Don't let them come near you!
They say they're your friends, and that you added them but that's all just a bunch of lies! Don't EVER trust them!
As soon as you let your guard down, they'll attack...and they go straight for your throat!
Oh god the horror...

[/QUOTE]LOL Sir Regin. Well luckily I don't use ICQ very often, and they never fooled me into thinking they were my friends, especially when you read stuff like "R U Sexy?" [img]tongue.gif[/img]
