UPS virus - please read	Permalink Closed

since many of us get shipping notifications from shopping online, I wanted to be sure you were all aware of this... There is a virus that arrives in the form of an email message from UPS. The subject line will have a tracking number, and the from address is not an address from UPS. The message states that you have a package that UPS is holding and that you can open the attachment to view the invoice. The attachment is a ZIP file that opens to an .EXE file. Don't click on the attachments, it's a program designed to destroy your hard drive and render it inoperable. If you receive these messages, delete them immediately. If you have a question regarding a UPS package, you can check their website. __________________ "Fashion can be bought. Style one must possess." ~ Edna Woolman Chase
