Answer 1

I'm on a MAC so it can't be viruses.





Yes it can be, and it is.

Answer 2

Your email id and password have been compromised. Change the password to a SECURE password.



If it keeps up - you probably have a virus and/or keystroke monitor.



And Mac's CAN, and DO get viruses:

Oops. Kind of puts a hole in the "I'm on a MAC so it can't be viruses" thing, don't it?

Answer 3

It could be a spoofed e-mail and your not really sending it. Also just because your on a MAC does not mean that you are virus free.

Answer 4

get better antivirus software

came from sites you visited or a email you opened

me i would scan with everything i cou;ld find and change your password
