A pretty good email scam

Read Original

The article describes a personal experience helping a family member recover from an email hack. The scammer not only stole the password but also set up hidden email forwarding and altered reply-to and 2FA settings to maintain access. It serves as a cautionary tale to check all account settings, not just change passwords, after a security incident.
