Hi, Anyone here have experience getting an email from unknown (SPAM folder). I use Yahoomail & received an email from a random person saying that they have hacked my email account & demanding money within 48 hours or else they will lock my device after 48 hours. Is there any way to prevent from the device being locked?

    Being pawnd is not unusual. Just change passwords on sensible frequency. Don't forget it is very rarely personal. Big databases, Smart software.   Not young guys with hoodies!!
