Every time I receive an email about how my “UPS package has arrived”, I can’t but shake my head at the methods employed by phishing scammers.
That type of email works as follows: the spam arrives the first time around, and one is either bound to open it and trash it or the spam filter kicks in.
The second time around, the same email arrives with a malicious attachment; an executable or zip file that contains a trojan which – when opened – will take over your computer.
Phishing scams can lead to tragedies, such as loss of bank accounts’ balances, hijacking of email or domain accounts; the latter surely leads to domain name loss, eventually.
So keep your eyes open for this method of double-spamming and keep your antivirus software up to date.
i don’t like that kind of stuff.
i used to fall for crap that said free naked women. i mean who doesn’t like free naked women. but there are plenty of places you can see free naked women plus you can get an 19″ penis for only ten dollars. but they don’t tell you how much it’s gonna cost to buy new pants.
