It happens and you're in good company. Sorry to hear it though! My sister's account got hacked while we were in Scotland. Her contacts were getting e-mails saying that she was sick and needed money to help pay medical bills. (Of course it wasn't true but in the past she's battled cancer three times and won -- so, it was especially nasty.) Other friends have had to change their e-mail accounts for the same reason. It's a hassle. :(
