Work-from-home " opportunity" Oh yeah>

Does anyone know anything about some American scamsters called "breakoutincomes" who promise an (alleged) work-from-home idea----and have hacked into my email, sending me bogus messages from the addresses of (real, actual) friends--subject line "HEY", message "this sounds interesting, check it out" or some similar phrase inviting me to click on a link. Like a fool, I did so, and it turns out to puff their supposed online work from home business "opportunity", just pay up for our advice and you'll grow rich, etc etc. I don't (much) mind spam from bogus 419 scamsters, I do very much mind having my email criminally hacked into.
If you get similar emails, don't open the link--they'll then use YOUR address, as they already have mine, to multiply their lies--and don't have ANYTHING to do with these people.
