Has my email account been Hacked?

I have found vulgar emails on my Hotmail which look like they have been sent from me through my Hotmail account, from my IPhone and have been moved to files in my account, I don't know how they got there, when I emailed the other person in the conversation to find out what was going on I had a failure notice (which tells me the email address does not exist) and there's no IP address attached to the email.

Has my email account been hacked?

Yes it has. Change the passwords on all your email accounts as soon as possible.

Maybe or maybe not. Sometimes your email address is "spoofed"

You may want to scan your computer for worms also.

I would recommend changing passwords and scanning your computer for viruses and worms. It may not exactly be hacked but it is good to make sure. Things could go really south if your email was hacked by a person with the intention to do harm.

  • My iPhone X has been hacked is my phone useless now? My ex stole my Apple ID password and security questions and has changed them. On top of that, she has locked my apps such as my calendar and notes. I can't access nothing without putting the Apple ID PW in. Is my phone no good now? Do I have to buy another?
  • I think my psn account has been hacked So i was gone for the weekend and on the weekend i went to my cousins house and i have them as friends on psn and they told and showed me that i just got offline then they went to their friends list and it said that i last signed in 40 mins ago and i haven't got on in a day.

  • I'm worried that my iPhone has been hacked? I just recently got an android phone, but still have my iPhone 5c (but has no service, so it's basically an iPod touch). It's been off in a drawer for about a month, and I've recently turned it on. I was going through my photo album and several bunches of photos (my photos) say that they were taken in Qinghai, China and El Bayadh, Algeria, both of which I've never been to. Should this be a concern? If so, what should I do?
  • I have been locked out of my Hotmail email account I went to login to my email today on the computer as normal, same password etc and it kept saying it was wrong - I tried too many times and now I'm locked out! However I'm still logged in to my emails on my Iphone… Is there anyone I can email about this problem - because the phone code is linked to another phone which I don't have anymore, and the other email for reset I no longer have access to either
