The best things to do are make sure you have a good strong anti virus running on all your internet connected devices. Also run malware scans on them all and make sure you have a good strong password for your mailbox. They may well just have harvested your email address from somewhere and then used that to try and scam you.

Hi Dantheman1987, you've got details setup on the Password Reset Tool that look legitimate and there are no forwards on the mailbox both of these would normally reflect if you''re mailbox had been hacked. 

 

Do you still need help to get this sorted?
