how did i get a spam email from what appears to be my own address?
KEN D asked:
i got a spam email in my bulk folder from one of those places trying to sell drugs on the internet. i usually look over my bulk emails just to make sure a legitimate one didnt get filtered out by mistake. i look at who sent it and if i dont recognize it i simply delete it. but the address of the supposed sender caught my eye on this one. it is my email address!!!!

They could have a program that automatically inserts the address of whoever the email is going to.. doen’t seem useful but it got your attention
(Doesn’t mean it came from your account)
Also it could be by very very small coincidence but I doubt it
Also it could be from a bug from someone else’s computer.. it got your email from their computer and sent to your address because your address was in their computer (doesn’t mean you’d have that bug)
A hacker knows how to do that.
