For months, Canadian Neighbor Pharmacy spammed my email box with dozens of spams each week; reported to US FCC which stopped them for a while. Now they are back with a vengeance. Two days ago, they hacked into my email account and sent their website link to people in my email account address books – despite a firewall, virus protector and spam guard. Had a friend not asked why I sent the link, I never would have known. The website lists the contacts as shown below - none have a phone number – if one even exists. I'm reluctant to post the link for fear it might make email accounts vulnerable if the link is opened.

They keep hijacking my contact list. I have deleted and re-entered it several times to no avail. Yahoo is aware of this problem but cannot do anything. I have tried blocking them with no luck. Sick of them bothering family, friends and co-workers. Anybody have any ideas?

Total Scam, can't believe I fell for it.
Ordered meds, never received them. File a chargeback quick to get your money back.

Despite a fire wall if you clicked on the link at any time there was most likely a bot virus (or Trojan virus) connected to it. They change shape constantly and that is why a fire wall cannot pick it up. If you had not clicked the link they wouldn't be able to hack anything. You need a professional to MANUALLY search your pc or laptop to find the bot. I received many of these emails and never what I ordered until I disputed the charge with my credit card company. They took off the charge then magically I got two orders instead of one and a phone call requesting me to remove the dispute. They said I could keep the 2nd order for free because they don't take returns. I will never buy this way again. And they emailed and said that disputing charges ruins your credit, so just a note from someone who has worked in credit card and fraud department with a large bank, that is total BS.I'll be watching if they continue to mess with me.

Hi, I've experienced this problem only once but I think I know what they're doing. A friend of mine sent a link in an email to this : http://amsdesigninc.com/concrete5/packages/cannonf700_innovation/themes/wefgr.html
Don't go to the site on a computer, if you wanna check it out do so on a phone with Internet access, I haven't had any problems with my email researching these links via my phone. It was a redirected link to Canadian Neighbor Pharmacy. I know that you all have lost a great deal of money in this, but I urge you to check out the site from where this is all coming. Do it on a phone or a computer like at the library or SOMETHING because this is some ###ed-up ### we're dealing with here. Go to www.amsdesigninc.com/concrete5/packages/cannonf700_innovation/themes/
And you'll see an extensive list of links, when you click on the links you'll be redirected to either 1) the Canadian Neighbor Pharmacy page that has been spammed repeatedly in emails, 2) a related online pharmacy, the Canadian Health & Care Mall, 3) a free trial for
Viagrow, or 4) a scam on getting rich quick by working at home. AMS Design is a site designed to help users store information to start up a website, but I believe the pharmaceutical industry is using sites like these to send spam emails. When you go to the second site I listed that i urge you to visit, you'll see a number in the furthest right-hand column, and I think that column is the number of email addresses infiltrated by this particular hacker. If we can prove this hacker is affiliated with these pharmaceutical companies, we might very well have a case.

I was hacked too after I got one of these annoying spams from my sister. I did not provide a password, but I changed my password today after a friend of mine alerted me to these messages being sent out by my account. So, make sure you change your password righ away so they can' continue to use your account. I am just wondering how they got into my account in the first place. Creepy. Isn't there a way to bust this scam operation?

I have also been receiving these emails from the account of a friend of mine. The unfortunate thing is that this friend died last year. So, I know 1)He is not sending these out and 2)it's very stressful for me to keep getting emails from his account. I called the number that Yllom316 and lilli mentioned above [protected]). I actually got to speak with a man named Reuben (with a very thick Indian accent...) who did not identify the company. I asked if I had the number for Canadian Neighbor Pharmacy. He hesitated for a minute and then said 'yes, we do their customer service'. I explained the problem and he told me that their company had unfortunately been hacked by a virus, blah, blah, blah and that he would pass it along to "get taken care of". I don't really expect that to happen, but I did feel somewhat satisfied that I was able to at least tell someone how obnoxious this was.

Dude, I had my CPU wiped clean and my friends were still getting this crap while my computer was being worked on 'erased'. I want to kick some ### on this one. I have to apologize to my friends, repeatedly. I'm a veteran, I don't buy my drugs. Never heard of them, nor can I think why they would hack my contacts. My friends are a bit smarter than that. has anyone figured out who is behind it? I'm thinking 'Class Action!

I hate these ###, the problems started for me just out of the blue. I never went to their website and had never even heard of them. I certainly had not given my email and password away to anyone. Well, what do you know people start replying to me asking why I have been sending them links to a Viagra selling website including my grandparents and old school-teachers. I freak out and delete my email account and start a brand new one. a week later the problems have started again. I give up with these guys, who do they think they are? They clearly have no morals and I feel sorry for anyone that has lost business and credibility over this.

make a new email address, don't use your old one ever again, and re-add your contacts manually.
that's all i can think of that's "foolproof"

These ###s hacked into my Yahoo contacts and have been E-mailing their links (never the same) about 10 times now. My friends were getting these even while my CPU was being wiped clean at the docs. Is there anything to be done? Thankfully, my address is in my contacts so I can forward stuff from other places to myself, so I get a link when everyone else does. I'm tired of apologizing.

I'D LIKE TO HANG THESE ### UP BY THEIR THUMBS...

I KNOW HOW THEY GOT INTO MY YAHOO ACCOUNT, AND EVERYONE, INCLUDING POTENTIAL CLIENTS AND CURRENT CLIENTS NOW THINK I AM PUSHING THEIR ILLEGAL CRAP!

WISH I KNEW HOW TO MY HANDS ON THEIR THROAT... THIS HAS COST ME CREDIBILITY AND TONS OF $$$$$...

THIS OPERATION IS A TOTAL AND COMPLETE SCAM, AND HAS TO BE VERY HIGHLY PLACED IN ORDER TO EMPLOY THE KIND OF SOPHISTICATED HACKERS THEY DO. I WONDER WHAT WILL BE NEXT. WISH SOMEONE WOULD TRACE THEM AND LOCK THESE SOBS UP !

I ordered from this website Canadian Neighbor Pharmacy without checking first. Which is something I usually always do. Not sure why I didn't this time. After no confirmation email and no repsonse from anyone after 4 emails, I called my bank. They were able to get a phone number off my bank statement. That number is [protected]. It is a voicemail and nothing more. Asking you to leave your name, phone number and your order number (which they never give you) and someone will get back to you. Which of course I won't hold my breath on that. I have called my bank and am lucky they are going to give me my money back. I just should have looked into them first.

I was sent the link also, by a friend with Gmail. I tried to order, but when I did not get a confirmation, I called my bank. I changed my bank account and placed a fraud alert on it.
