My name is Wael Imdoukh, resident of Dubai (UAE). I have been using my email account "*** Email address is removed for privacy ***" for more than 15 Years and now all of sudden on August 13th 2013 someone has hacked my email account and sending out emails to all my contacts and asking
them money.
I am also copying the email below, the hacker has sent to one of my contacts for your reference :

Hello,
Sorry to bother you I'm presently out of town, I made a quick trip to Cyprus but unfortunately for me my bag containing my phone, money and some personal stuff got stolen Last night.Can I get a quick loan for 2500 Euros to cover my expenses? You'll have it as soon as I get home. I 'll appreciate what you can give if not all. It 's really urgent, please get back to me quickly and keep this between us , I 'll advise on how to send it.

Team, i request you to please help me get this account back at the earliest so that i can inform all of my contacts that email was hacked and not to initiate any money transfer.
Please also take a note that i have tried to submit a form on Microsoft website but did not found fruitful results. tough i do have the information of the email i have sent.
Please also note that i have submitted a written complaint to the local police station in Dubai because the hacker do have the soft copy of my Passport (as it was saved in my emails).
Thanking You
Wael Imdoukh
