Bad virus....beware

Post by Lizard »

I thought I would just warn you there is a nasty virus out there, it starts with an email address, this one...davidcameron99@hotmail.com, it invades your privacy, copies, steals and pastes personal information, then mails it using another false identity, it,s a particularly nasty worm this one, so take care. You will know it when you see it, it has a virgin media ip address that hails from the north west coast.
So take care out there kids, it,s a minefield.

Doesn't one have to open an attachment or click on a link for nasty things to happen? Or is it enough merely to open the email?

This one's really sneaky, just delete it, then completely ignore it.

"it invades your privacy, copies, steals and pastes personal information,"

Thanks for taking the time to clarify the validity of the information sent to me.

I am not surprised that it is authentic though for a moment it did remind me of my own completely invented posts re. an everyday story of forum folk.

I can't remember who sent the material for that.

Cheers

The reality had a much more nasty streak, though.

Anyway, it's their forum and they can write whatever they please. I don't think it's wise to bring crap from one forum to another so I'd leave it be.


They want you banned after all so use your noggin and forget it.
