These are getting BRILLIANT! (Almost...)

Here's the latest of the virus spams I get on our local clubs email. They are really finding some great ways to get morons to open attachments.

Now..., if they'd only learn grammar and SPELLING!!!!

The attachment at the end is titled:

refcode19725.txt.cmd

I really do enjoy reading some of these.

I only have a few e-mail recipients...if my inbox has anything else, BAM! it's deleted.

Some innocent senders got blown away as a result, but it's a small price to pay for security. And if the e-mail was urgent, the sender usually tries to reach me by some other means...

... I don't expect anyone to notify me of being the recipient of a large sum of money, so therefore, I don't open anything from an unknown sender...

...and if the "Men in Black" want to find me, they know where I live...
