I received a text message this early morning from my relatives in New York informing me that they got an email under my name (using my gmail account) asking for EMERGENCY involving money.

Here’s a punch: When I tried to open my gmail account, my username and password did not match. I stand firm in my belief that I encoded it right. So, I asked my online friends then I found out that someone has broken in to my account. They also received the email.

I cannot already access my account. Please help me in solving this problem. Thank you…

Here’s the e-mail:
