All good here Toogie. Thanks for the warnings.
xxxx, M
If people who do this would use their fingers and brains doing good things what a great country we would have.
Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks Kathy. We had a widow woman at church BELIEVING a scam and sent all her life savings. She sent over $200,000 ! Her kids, family, everyone tried to convince her it was a scam. Promise of marriage, etc, etc.
Then if that wasn't bad enough she sold her nice big brick home and after the kids got half for their dad's part, she sent that money.
She now rents an apartment. When she sends her nephew to Walmart for $40. things she needs, she ask if she could pay him next month out of her retirement check income. She is a retired school teacher!
So sad, when they are so brain washed their known and loved family and close friends, can't make them understand. My friend Trudy, I made the blue coat hanger safe for, grew up with this woman, went to college together, and remained friends all these years. Trudy hated what was happening but the woman wouldn't listen to her BFF. Now Trudy is sick about it but helpless.
HI,
It did not effect my computer, I will run a scan just to be sure. I did open
your email last night, but this morning all is OK. Get well soon. Lynette
If you do think its alright, I will send you the updated pattern as it printed correct size for me. I also ran a long scan and said everything is okay now. I truly hope so. Let me know if you want the emailed updated pattern.
Sorry to read of your email scam. There are some very evil people out there in cyber space. Always finding new ways to get some thing or just stuff up our computers. Hope you get it sorted. Hugs
This is the last thing you needed when not feeling well. Like others have said, It is not your fault! Sending hugs and prayers your way.
I have tried to contact all Cuties with a PM too that I remembered maybe having their email addresses. I hope this has not caused any harm to anyone. I also hope I have covered everyone or you see this. But I'm not well and been on here for hours, so again I am sorry. I am running a Full Scan on my pc and its l-o-n-g.Thank you rescuer for my rescue.
Just know it will all be OK. You didn't get one of the really bad ones. If the scan shows anything, let me know via PM so I don't miss seeing it.
Thanks Toogie, I read my PM before I went to emails and I'm o.k. I don't understand those scammers, they obviously don't have anything else better to do with their time! Hope you get it all sorted out.
Big thanks to rescuer for the information as well. Love Chris
Yes, she lives up to her name.
Glad you caught this first. I come here first,too. It's a good place to be!
It is always a good idea to change passwords every 6 months or so..BUT you need to make sure your computer is "clean" first. Run an online scan like the ones from Eset, Kaspersky, or Trendmicro. They are free but they do take LONG time to finish. Also, you can run a second kind of program that checks for malware like the one you opened. I use malwarebytes.org to run their free scan. All the scans should show no malware/viruses. Usually when you open that kind of thing, it is located only in your temp files. However, if you need help with this -- send me a PM. Most of all -- don't panic! Your health...it will all be OK.
If there is anything left in temp files, would it have shown in the long scan? Everything seems ok on my pc.
How annoying. Hope you get sorted quickly
Thank you Caroline for all your help. It is very upsetting to someone, with almost, no computer knowledge.
