I keep getting these every since I let Avast scan my emails for viruses.

Is this from Avast ? If so, then why does it think I have an email account at google.com ?

Not frequently but enough to bug me.

I know that there is no email address of “an.rob76@google.com”. Who, what, or why is something trying to send something to that address ? This just started when I allowed Avast to scan my emails for viruses !!!

Hi Robert

Thats a strange one and i have no idea.

are you receiving this via one of your email accounts and if so which, yahoo, msn, hotmail, gmail or another.

It might be worth looking through your contacts in your email address book to see if somehow that email address has been added that you didnt know about. These spam links are getting more creative and can do a lot of crafty things like redirects or adding fake accounts.

Have you checked your email to see if its details have been sold on the dark web. if its green your safe but red means compromised and to change passwords asap.

this actually happened to my msn email i used to sign up on here and would you believe it was because this forum was hacked back in 2014 along with hundreds of other sites like facebook etc and im still getting spam emails or fake threats that ive visited p0rn sites and they have access to my camera. the password that they show with my user name was an actual password that i used but that was before the 2014 hack and it was changed back then and on a regular basis ever since.

i use this https://haveibeenpwned.com/ but you could also use the avast site which does exactly the same thing Has Your Email Been Hacked? Free Data Leak Check | Avast

Sorry for the delay but this type of error has magically disappeared without me doing anything different. It has not occurred in over 6 weeks. Thanks for your reply with things to try.
