Post by: Martin (Admin) on October 01, 2008, 12:32:28 am
Don't open any attachments marked something like....

UPS Tracking Number 77247438969

"Unfortunately we were not able to deliver postal package you sent on......"

Also DON'T go to any links in an email saying "You've been sent a E-card or E-Greeting!"

Similar One from Customs containg a trojan Virus. Stating that  they are holding a parcel and for you, and to contact them about it.

Have not got the exact details as we delete anything that we are not certain about.
