Your account had not been hacked. You are over-reacting. It is just spam. They contain malicious lURL links that can damage your computer very badly. Don't open any file. I receive spam all the time. Doesn't mean my account is hacked. People who send spam pay thousands of dollars for a generator that randomly sends spam emails out to users who have recently had contact with them. If you have recently visited a random Facebook page, Twitter, YouTube, Minecraft, Club Penguin, any website with chatting, there is a data log that his your IP and email in it and that is how they send you it. Just ignore. Get a filter that send all unknown messengers to your junk box. Make sure you have a good antivirus. If you don't already have it, download Malwarebytes. It is the best free antivirus out there.

Hope this helped Smile

Chill out... receiving emails is not a sign of being hacked.
