Spammers are spoofing my email address!! Blech!!!
I started getting thousands of obviously spammy emails “bounced” back to my inbox – all with my address in the From: line.
Here’s what is happening…
A low-life spammer sends SPAM emails to thousands of people. They enter someone else’s address to the From: field of the email because they (obviously) don’t want the spam tracked back to them. When the email bounces, it comes to the spoofed person’s address. In this case, me. 
Then there are the cases where the SPAM goes through, and someone gets it in their inbox. This is even worse because they think I sent them the SPAM email!
So if you’re getting SPAM that looks like it is from me, it is NOT! I promise.
Spoofing is a pretty common problem, but it still sucks. And sadly, there is little that can be done about it.
