Lots of them. But then, I ask around since I was in office, and most them my colleagues experience the same thing before, they say after a couple of month hotmail will block your account for good.

Anyway I create another account in Gmail to replace the one that got spam. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
