Skype Hacker-Phishing WARNING

Hi Southern,

First of all, DON'T click on ANY LINK in ANY
Skype message that you get from me. I rarely
send links in Skype messages unless I am already
in the middle of a conversation with you.

Apparently, my Skype account has been hi-jacked,
which means that my hundreds of Skype contacts
likely received a phishing message trying to get
you to click on a link, where upon you'll be
prompted to log back into your Skype account,
and they will hijack the account. I don't
remember going through all that, but I DO
remember a cryptic email from a friend (who normally
sends fairly cryptic emails) asking me to take a
look at something.

I intuitively asked what it was before clicking on
the link, and was satisfied enough with the also
cryptic response that I clicked on it.

At that point, Skype started to download something
to my computer, and I stopped the download, but Skype
logged me out, and when I logged back in, I guess
that's where the damage was done!

Over the next hour or so, I got emails and phone calls
from a dozen friends telling me that they think my
Skype account has been compromised... and they based
that upon the REALLY poor English in the Skype messages
they were getting.

One friend pointed me to this link which explained what
was likely going on:

Skype doesn't seem to have a convenient way for you to
deal with the issue, a support ticket could take days
to get a response... and there is no number on their
site that I could find. The hacker apparently changed
the contact details to HIS email address, so I can't
retrieve the new password (since he apparently changed
it) and I can't delete the account.

Stay tuned, but I don't currently have control of MY
old Skype account. I thought of starting a new one, but
will try to resolve the issue through channels. Skype has
done one thing that indicates they are aware of the
problem.

Starting a new account would mean that I'd lose the 500
or so contacts that I had in my account... many of whom
I routinely communicated with :-(

Apparently, this problem is pretty big, which is why I'm
sending you this alert.
