Hacked Gmail and Hotmail accounts: Were you affected?

Earlier on we reported on the big news that thousands of you have had your Gmail and Hotmail email accounts hacked, as a result of a global phishing scam that has been surfacing around the web lately.

While Google and Microsoft have stated that they are working hard to combat the situation, we can’t help but feel that a lot of you have had your privacy invaded and personal details leaked.

Were you one of the thousands who inadvertantly allowed someone to access your email account? Let’s not forget that this scam has also affected Yahoo and AOL users too, so it is a global problem which needs to be firmly addressed soon.

Give us your thoughts on this.
