Email sent to me by me?
From time to time, despite changing my password to more complicated to guess it appears my Yahoo account has been compromised because I received an email from "me" containing a link to an internet pharmacy. This keeps happening and I am getting seriously peeved with Yahoo and seriously thinking about dumping yahoo and switching everything over to iCloud.
Is my account actually being hacked or are these spoofed to look like I am sending them or what the heck is going on?

Hello,
When you receive SPAM emails from yourself, it doesn't necessarily mean that your account has been hacked. I guess most of us do receive this kind of phishing emails once in a while. We have the tendency to take a look into those emails if they are sent by us!! All you can do is simply ignore them and mark it as SPAM as soon as you receive them. Do not open those emails because you never know what kind of Virus these emails contain.
Take Care!
