rans6andrew,

I have received a scam reply email, about an advert I have on AFORS, but what I can't understand is how the scammer found out my business email address and sent to it when I only have my hotmail address in the advert.

Very strange, going to the trouble of finding another address when the one in the advert has proved to be fine for everyone else.

It's a fact of life on the internet that no matter how careful, you will eventually receive at least one spam message to your email address. Get over it. Sorry, but it's the honest truth.

Rather than wasting time "finding another address" ...seeing as it is a business address, invest in better anti-spam measures.
