I've gotten at least one of those a day for the past month or so.... most of mine have had (blocked) email virus attachments.
Just as Baimun, I get at least one of those per day.....
Don't know why McFee don't send them to the Junk Email.....
Gave me a chuckle when i got my two yesterday...
I really wonder what the fuck is wrong with the people who make these things, y'know?
you wanna go out and fuck shit up?
fine.
have the balls to do it in person.
head off to the bar, and pick fights or something.
It's a spoof email and the attachment has a malicious virus embedded. Report it as spam and block the address..
Other known emails such as that have come from what looked to have been the fbi, but they're working on it..
From NOVEMBER 22, 2005 (COMPUTERWORLD) - A mass e-mail purportedly from the FBI is circulating online, carrying with it an attachment that contains a variant of the Sober computer virus.
In an announcement today, the FBI advised computer users that the agency never sends unsolicited e-mails and that they should not open the attachments in the fraudulent messages.
The scam e-mail tells recipients that their Internet use has been monitored by the FBI and that they have accessed illegal Web sites, according to the FBI. The e-mails, which are sent from e-mail addresses including [email protected], [email protected] and [email protected], then direct recipients to open an attachment and answer questions.
The text of the fake e-mails says: ?We have logged your IP-address on more than 30 illegal Websites. Important: Please answer our questions! The list of questions are attached.? The messages then include a fake name of an FBI official and the real address and phone number of the agency.
Catherine Milhoan, an FBI spokeswoman, said that recipients of the hoax e-mails began calling the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center yesterday to ask if they were legitimate. About 4,000 calls were received by last night, with some callers saying they had already clicked on the attachment. Others were cautious and wanted to check with the FBI before opening the attachment.
An investigation into the incident is continuing.
yep, there's a serious virus in those puppies.
Yeah, I figgered it was malicious. But how did they know I had visited 30 illegal websites? [img]wink.gif[/img]
