Just want to make one comment to posters here on
Gmail-Users

 Please for your saftey and for the security of your G-mail
account I 
would like to make a suggestion

 Don't post any E-mail address on here that's how viruses
and spam 
mail are spread, and also hackers can get to your account if
your not 
careful. I should know it happened to me. The hacker
compremise my 
account so I had to transfer all the mail and important
information 
regarding my account to my secondary account.

I was lucky that no information or mail I had in the account
were 
compremised however several days later when I went to check
on the 
status of the other account I found 100 (That's Correct)
spam messages in my inbox.

So that's why it is important that numbers and e-mail
addresses on 
forums like this be at a minimum because of this reason.

Did something happen beyond you receiving spam that makes you think your account was compromised? Getting a bunch of junk email does not affect your information's safety in any way and in no way means that "hackers" got you.
