I have run a webroot scan, nothing detected. However yesterday I noticed 6 identical emails were sent out of my gmail account to someone called lu-ph (@to.ropot.net) who is unknown to me. This looks very suspicious. 

 

The subject of the email is f125a79dfaaa11e5a307e83935c28b38 and the text in the email is 9f737b3ce4d10ac13d6b3280b70c4bc7a2Vsc2JvcnJvd0BnbWFpbC5jb20sM2ZiZDczY2I3NGNmNGVjYmFhZDZlMDVmM2E0NDRlYjk=

 

I immediately changed my google password, but is there anything else that needs to be done ? After these six identical emails no other emails were sent.

Hello kelsborrow

 

Welcome to the Webroot Community,

 

I would like you to know that Emails aren't scanned by Webroot, but as soon as you try to run a malicious attachment WSA would block the execution and protect your PC. Also if you would click on a link in an email the URL will be scanned against the cloud database.

You have to keep in mind that WSA works a bit different than other antivirus solutions; instead of scanning everything all the time and wasting hardware resources, Webroot tries to intelligently protect your PC against threats.

 

So I believe that if you have changed your password to your email then you should be alright.

 

Hope this helps?
