Don’t Open That E-card!
July 23, 2007
The Chronicle has a report on a recent email threat that is suckering users into clicking a virus that comes disguised as an e-card.
In most cases, the subject line informs recipients that they’ve received a greeting card or a postcard from a “friend,” “family member,” “worshipper,” “school-mate” or “neighbour.” When the e-mail is opened, there’s a link to a Web site that uploads viruses to the recipient’s computer.
Please use common sense when opening email attachments and when in doubt, don’t click.

But I get so few cards from “worshippers.”
Stupid hackers, taking all the fun out of it.
