(Of Dave and Lauren, John Hays Cigars)?
I can't tell if it's a joke, or if she sent it to get him back.

Did anyone else get an odd email from Lauren?

Welcome back, Kotter.
The wierd part of it is that they were all from people that post here. Makes me wonder if CBids accounts weren't the ones that were hacked...
I've gotten a couple of emails from hacked accounts lately.

Doubtful...
1) the hackers would have the credit card numbers, so they would likely be placing charges on them, not worrying about the much less than a penny per click-through payout.
2) they wouldn't have the password to the cbid user's email account, just the account address. Even if some people were to have used the same passwords, a large scale compromise doesn't usually involve actually knowing any of the users passwords, they come in other ways to get access to the entire DB.
3) Yahoo accounts are notorious for being hacked. Once the accounts are hacked, they typically download the entire address book and add it to the database that they are using to generate spam, so even once they are locked out, they often will still send out messages via a relay that appear to be from the hacked account.
It's not a hack like the traditional "I'm stuck in london" or "Hey, I tried this great **** enlarging supplement, you should too!".... It was more specific, referring directly to David, with an attached PDF.... overall weird considering I hadn't heard from them in forever. This is why I couldn't figure out if she sent it to screw with him, or if it was a joke I didn't get, or if some third party sent it to create some sort of problem.
If no one else got it, I guess I'll just ignore it. They aren't on the site any longer either??
