My account shows these websites listed on my saved password files in my google account.

inbox.craigsljst.net, messages.craiigsllist.com, 210.craigslist.org-int.xyz.

I have no idea how they got there. How is this possible?

Now i'm worried. I received the msg:

"Dear user, Your inbox is full, new messages for your item. Read your Craiglist here:

tap to load Preview

hxxp://readcl.com"

And I clicked on it - unfamiliar with craigslist... what should I do? Have I let those horrible people into my phone? I have an iPhone...

Clicking on the link will not give them access to your phone unless you have downloaded and installed some malicious app. If you did install an app after clicking the link, remove it.

And, if you attempted to sign into the page you were taken to after clicking the link, please change all of your online account passwords.

I have received an email like the one above, slight problem there is no craigslist in England, so I have sent it to my scam blocker, but it is still sending because the email senders keep changing their addresses. The sender code is [95767488. 4584A7B292182DF 14913227@103 .06F.00000152.0254]

I hope you find it of use.

Yours,

What should I do if I clicked the link? It directed me to another site that I closed immediately, but I still accessed it.
