I've Googled everywhere for a solution for this, but though the same issue appears to be happening to a lot of people, I havent found anything that helped.

Several of my clients are receiving loads of spam emails with the senders email being their own.

The emails subject line is:

Environmental corporation searching for representatives worldwide.

The emails are not being sent from any scripts in the sites and all the code appears clean.

I have also updated the sites CMS.

Would anyone know how to get round this issue? Any help is appreciated!
