  Hi there,

  This is usually caused by email spoofing, which isn’t the same as having your email hacked. You can learn more about email spoofing here:

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_spoofing

  I recommend you contact your email provider directly about that — they can give you more information about how to prevent email spoofing on your domain. Please let me know if I can do anything more to help with that. :)
