I have just received an alert from a couple of members that they have receieved an email apparently from me, but sent from another person's email address (also a member) that looked suspicious.

It is! I suspect it is that somebody had hacked an address book and has been sending this to harvested contacts. don't know the content of the message sent, but these sort of things usually have a link - don't touch the link and delete the message is the best protection in case it is something not nice.

I've alerted the person whose email address is where this message apparently came from (with my name on it!)
