HELP - I APPEAR TO BE SPAMMING PEOPLE

Hoping someone on here will be able to help me with this.

Suddenly my 'inbox' on Microsoft Outlook is full of undeliverable messages that have been sent by me (without my knowing anything about it) to tens of people/companies that i don't even know. Today's were 'Do you have the experience but not the degree'???????
I've done a virus/computer scan and it shows up everything working correctly and no viruses. Any ideas anyone? I've deleted all my cookies and temp folders etc

Hi Suz

I've had undeliverable messages at both work and home emails.
Most of the time they are spam messages themselves and not an 'undeliverable' reply to messages I've sent.
They are just trying to hide themselves in the guise of a useful message.

They might contain a link in the email that the spammers want you to click on.............don't for obvious reasons.

Hope this helps.

It'll likely either be backscatter spam or, as you're using Lookout, it could be a virus on your machine.

Check this link to see if it fits your problem, then give your PC a scan with an independent online virus scanner like Trend HouseCall for good measure (regardless of whether you have AV software installed).

Thanks for that i'll do that - it now seems to be putting everything in junk email despite my continually 'unjunking' stuff
