Friends, we have just been alerted about someone criminallyusing our UDP email account through hacking. Right now we are unable to use the account because theperson has managed to changed the password. But we areworking with the Yahoo group to solve the problemtherefore, we urge you to disregard all postingscoming from the said account until when things areback to normal.
At the moment we are not accusing any body for the actuntil when we receive our investigation. We thank you all for your understanding.
Regards,
Saihou

| heh.. Nigerian 419'ers . They probably used a phishing method to get your password.. or a brute forcing software executing a dictionary attack.. which tries lots of possible words until it gets lucky.. you might want to use a harder password next time, mix numbers and other characters.. |

Hi bro Mav;
It is truly a case for concern. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I will forward it to Mr. Mballow as time permits.
