someone DOES have the same hotmail email address as me, this is a security issue

Fair enough. That sound s OK to me.

Thanks for that. I only deleted his friends and any information about him on the page. It seems the only way to fix the problem. I still got facebook recommendations for a while but they have now stopped. I will go back to using the page shortly.

So I agree - it sounds like he has been using your email address, but not by logging into your outlook.com/hotmail account. Instead, he has told people (and facebook, etc.) that his email address is yours instead of what is really his. Given that you have the same name, his proper email address is quite possibly very similar.

In this case, changing your password would have no effect as your account isn't compromised.

To be fair, I don't think there is anything Microsoft can do in this situation. If this other guy hasn't woken up to it by now, I have limited sympathy for him. Of course, Facebook and banks should validate email addresses before using them, but if you clicked on a link in such an email, they wouldn't know better.

Maybe the best approach is to set up rules to block emails from these specific people, or just simply delete them.

Sorry, I can't think of any other alternatives.

Recently I was getting notifications from Facebook, that I have opened a Facebook account with my email address and getting a bunch of friend request from people I don't know.

I actually logged into Facebook with my SHARED email address, since I didn't know the password asked for a reset code which was delivered to the shared email address and checked out who is the other Attila Gombos ..... this person lives in Hungary which I have known for a while, and he had a legit Facebook account. I have also received numerous emails even from his girlfriend and bank statements not to mention a bunch of job applications etc. Since I have asked his girlfriend and also his bank, to notify him about this situation which either he doesn't care or never done anything to correct it, I have deleted his Facebook account yesterday, with a hope this will get someone's attention.

I hope this clarifies the situation

Attila

Attila, if I go back to my previous question - do you have any reason to suspect that this other person has access to your account? For example, are they sending emails from your account?

If you are only receiving emails intended for him, then this is quite a different matter.
