OK... the signs are rather easy to spot....
1) someone who you send/receive EMAILs from sends you [[and a bunch of other folks) a rather strange EMAIL that has nothing at all to do with either of you... and usually points to some weird website.... or gives a Spam-like message.
2) if the names of the recipients on your EMAIL are shown... and they are all in close ascending alphabetic order [[for example 8 folks with last names starting with H, I and J).
____________
If you get an EMAIL from someone that has these characteristics, likely the senders EMAIL system has been compromised/hacked into in some way.
I've gotten EMAIL from 2 folks in the last 2 weeks who said their computers were hacked into and compromised in this way.
You may have gotten EMAILs like this in the past, and just thought it was rather strange... but then went on with your life....
But if you do get this type of strange EMAIL message from a friend... let them know!!
They may need to have a computer Geek fix the problem.....
In thinking back... I know I've received other strange EMAILs [[that I've just ignored) in the past, that may have been this type of problem....
