Just received a strange email from Sam. Said I had to log onto Google Docs to read it. Foolishly I did so and the document is nothing to do with Sam. It's about wealth management.

Does anyone know if more serious consequences will happen because I logged on? Best change password,I guess, although I have nothing of importance in Google Docs.

His website was compromised a few years back, perhaps it happened again and they're firing emails out in his name this time. Yes, change your password 🙂

I've had a few of these, always from people who would never ever send me some kind of document online.

Quite a few 'Pay this invoice now, or we send in the bailiffs. Open this file to read it' also. No bailiff have yet appeared..?

Thanks for headsup - I wondered if it was a Rooster update or reply to my request for a missing Puffin headbadge 🙁

Can I recommend changing your Google account to two factor authentication as well.

Be honest, weighing up the chances of being spammed against a Rooster update, which is most likely?
