my gmail account thepsi43@gmail.com is sending out emails to my contact list with links to phishing sites in them, how do i fix that?

scan computer
change password
check your gmail settings, make sure everything is in order

there's nothing you can really do

your e-mail is most likely being spoofed, which is easy for anyone to do

but you should check to see if you've been phished

if you've been phished you have a virus

if you haven't been phished your email was jacked from someone else's phished address book and is being spoofed

although i checked my email this morning and had a spam message from psi, so i actually think he has been phished

how can i be phished when i never really click on any links i get or anything like that, it puzzles me.

so there is absolutely nothing i can do? Can't i ask google to delete my account and just remake that same account?
