Unfortunately spammers will spoof people's email addresses and there is nothing you can do to stop it.

They will eventually move onto another address.

Please see the information in this google search. It may be worth informing you contacts do they don't click on any links.

Thank you for your reply, it is a bit disheartening I can't do anything about it. I don't think it's feasible to warn all my contacts.

But I am grateful you are there to help, I do find it frightening.

If there is anything I can do in the future please email me again.

Please do use the link above and stay vigilant and cautious of unsolicited emails or messages. Verify the sender's identity before providing any sensitive information. Use strong, unique login credentials, enable two-factor authentication, and be alert of messages from unknown sources.

Should you require further assistance please do not hesitate to reach out to us again 🙂
