Hi Duncan
Hope your niece got the £100 voucher? I’ll expect your cheque in the post
.
Seriously if you haven’t already done so change your passwords (machine, email etc).
I don’t think this was a very competent scam. The email didn’t give a link (which you shouldn’t open) and seemed very amateurish. Fortunately most of these contact heists end up with the hacker selling the contact list to companies that just send advertising out using your mail address.
Hope you get it cleaned up soon?
Cheers
Howard
