Lost Contacts

    Lost Contacts

    My account was used to send out spam messages.  I have cleaned my computer, but now all of my contacts are gone.  How can I get them back?

    My email address is {removed email address}

    Three email addresses are:

    {removed email address}

    {removed email address}

    {removed email address}

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    I have also lost all my contacts due to a virus, I was hoping you could also help me to try and get these back?

    Hi K,

    I'll try my best to recover them for you. Please give the following:

    - Hotmail account
    - At least 3 sample contacts from your lost address book.
