Protected Mail System?

Sat Apr 03, 2004 3:54 pm by -------

I just checked my e-mail and I found this Protected Mail System from [email protected] when I was scrounging around in my Bulk Mail folder looking for something that could be useful. What is this? I'm going to delete it if you guys didn't send it. I don't want to take the risk of it carrying a virus or something.

Theres no reason for anyone to be recieving an email from the [email protected] addy. That addy is only for ppl to send mods into us. Just delete it. It's a spoofed email prolly with a virus in it.

It's good that you asked; spam without a doubt. Worm-ridden? Most likely.

Somebody must really like that e-mail addy!

I get around a dozen emails a day like this, click every time. If it's important it won't be filtered out in a Spam filter or it will be a valid address with an appropriately named attachment. Not an attachment called "Attachment", "Your file", "your document" or any other general thing.

Signature? What's that?

@Electricbrain and Esky: Thanks for letting me know. I'm very paranoid when it comes to viruses of ANY sort or suspicious e-mail. Appreciate your help.

You are right to be paranoid. Trust me
