Chief asked me to let you all know his email has been hacked. He is working on it now. Please ignore any emails from him today. Oh bother...

Yep. Chief is asking for help for an eBay card for his nephew. Don’t click on any link

Considering that Chief only lives a few miles from me, I responded to the email. I was asked to buy a $200 eBay gift card, take a photo of it, and email it back. My brain finally kicked in, and I realized it was bogus. Bottom line: I took no action and called Chief. Good news is: Chief knows I love him and was ready to buy a gift card and take it to his house

I think I have my email secured again. This was a rookie mistake on my part. I was preoccupied with when an email came in from Yahoo. Normally I never click on any link in any email like this. I would normally just go to their web site. But like I said, I was really preoccupied with another issue. It's not a very good excuse but it will have to do.
Many thanks to Coastie. It's nice to know I have a friend :)
