Gemm linked virus

#

Started by Michael

Dunno if anyone else has received this, but I thought I’d share it with you. I have received two emails containing a virus which supposedly has something to do with Gemm (online cd shop). It contains an attachment with the extension *.doc.scr. Whatever you do, do NOT open this! In fact, never open an attachment with a double extension.
Some people who have emailed me in the past may receive a similar email that seems to come from me, I guess this is one of those viruses that spreads itself around using email addresses found in your inbox or address book. So be very careful if you receive an email like the one I described.

There’s also been loads of emails going around that APPEAR to be genuine, but are total fraud’s. They look like proper mails from the likes of Paypal, Ebay etc…, asking for you to confirm your account details and such.

Delete them straight away! They’re total fakes posing as legitimate businesses. Once they have your credit card details, you’re fucked.

:mad:

I got three e-mails appearing to come from eBay saying that their records showed that my home phone number wasn’t valid and that my account had been suspended until I updated my phone number. I immediately checked the headers of the e-mail and confirmed it was a fraud.

Then, out of curiosity, I visited the webpage they were linking to, on some obscure server, and there was a form where I had to fill in ALL my details just to update my phone number, e.g. address, age, income, credit card details, etc, etc. How stupid do they think I am?
