OT-Got a virus, but guess what??

->> Everyone shutters in fear over getting a virus, and for the first time in YEARS, I got hit with an email Trojan and my email was hijacked. Folks from all over were sending me emails letting me know I got hit, and folks I had not talked to in a long time started conversations...and two people (husband and wife) who had emailed me about my workshops way a long time ago wrote back and said "We completely forgot about your workshops but now we've decided to stop talking about it and just do it."... So, thanks to a virus I made $750 today.
Who woulda thunk it? Ain't it funny how life is sometimes? Just like a box of chocolates...
Thought I would share this with y'all. I hope the thought police approve. |

| ->> I ran into a similar situation just a few days ago. It was through an old e-mail address and I only came out with $50. However it was $50.00 I didn't have before. |

| ->> It's also a lesson to go back in your emails, even a year or more, and see if there isn't some inquiry you dropped the ball on, some piece of business you didn't close that might still be achievable. I'm going to farm my own stored emails from now on. |

| ->> Obviously this was the exception to the rule which is why I thought it was noteworthy, so no, generally not. But then, you knew that!! |
