Wtf Are These E-mails I'm Getting? - Eddie - 04-19-2004

OK, I\'ve been getting a lot of weird e-mails lately. They\'ve all had a .zip file attached to them, and the subject has always been something weird, like \'read it immediately\', one that I received from Jason7, and just recently I received one titled \'stolen\' from Justin\'s e-mail. The message read \'misc\' and the file attached was a .zip file. Now, I have a strong feeling that these are viruses being sent to me. I ain\'t stupid, mind you, and I never open the files, but I was just warning everyone, especially Jason7 and Justin, and perhaps they might want to run a systems check on their computers.

Run a scan on your pc, that is a local virus pulling random email addresses that it sees in while you browse websites/forums and uses it to generate a fake email to you.

I figured it was. I don\'t think I\'ve got it, though. Norton would have picked it up by now.
