Default Email Scam?

Bob, I just received a strange email from your bobbardhard1 gmail account titled Playing Tag. My security software blocked it as phishing.
Please advise.
Thanks,
John Mattaliano

I have gotten plenty of this kind of email from friends that have aol accounts, They always seem to get hacked but I never heard of a gmail account being hacked before. I don't want to acknowledge his email. If anybody has another email address for Bob, they should let him know what's going on

Yes hacked yesterday morning. Up until now I had always considered my Gmail account to be secure but looks like it can be vulnerable as well. I opened an attachment from a trusted friend that looked so real and official and got bit. So sorry about this.

Bob
