I have received an email saying my password for this site !!!

I haven't opened it, as I'm sure it's spam. Has anyone else had this? The user name is lexy schultz.
How the heck did he find this out?
Bit scary to say the least.

I did read on FB of someone who had similar. She, however, had opened it. I think she was in the UK and people advised her to get in touch with the police. I think I would just change all my passwords and hope for the best.

Was your password the same one you used for a long-gone site like Cyprus44 or little Nige's site? I only ask because old sites can be raided for the purpose of attempted extortion.

Ah, thanks Groucho, that could be the answer.
Trouble is, I don't know how to change my password, sad hey?

Flowerfairy. If you go to the top right of the page and click on the little arrow next to your name. Select user control panel. Choose user profile and then edit account settings. The option to change your password is in there. Good luck!
