Account hacked?

I used to have an account shaunoreilly@riseup.net

A friend has received emails I did not send.

I can’t access the account. Can I recapture the account or delete the account?

I am using a different rise up account name now.

Thank you
Stephen Sizer

Hi,

The account shaunoreilly has been closed for a while for no use. That mail wasn't sent using that account, but probably the From field was forged. You can read more about this at https://www.howtogeek.com/121532/htg-explains-how-scammers-forge-email-addresses-and-how-you-can-tell/

If the mail was sent to another riseup.net account it should have been directly sent to the spam folder.
