I got email from Livejournal.com in Russian. Google Translate revealed that it was a response to a password reset request, which I certainly hadn't sent.

The message ended:

If you have not requested anything like this, do not worry. Maybe someone sent a request by mistake, thinking that this account belongs to him, or simply made a typo in the name or address of the email.

But even if it was an intruder who was trying to find out your password, laugh at his failure: it's a letter come to your own address, and not his.


The message also gave an IP address, which resolves to somewhere in the middle of Russia and apparently a known spammer if not worse.

Mission Statement

Reading, writing, plant photography, and the small details of my life, with digressions into science and computing.
