'Saddam Found Dead' mail ---->

#1 Postby TexasStooge » Fri Oct 03, 2003 11:12 am

If you get a piece of mail that says "Saddam Found Dead", don't be fooled, it could be an advertisment for Hair restoration, Weight loss, Get Rid of Debt Fast, etc. I already got one this morning and "SURPRISE", they titled it just to get your attention.

I would be more worried that an e-mail like that might have a virus. Whenever I get anything from a source I don't trust, I simply delete it without ever opening it.

Same here. If you don't know who is sending you an e-mail, why take a chance of getting a virus.

I actually got an e-mail that said, "WREL Forecast Models," [words to the affect] a few weeks ago. The e-mail indicated that it was a virus, so I deleted it immediately and did a virus scan; no viruses were found.

They make up alot of titles to make you open it. If the name looks suspicious or you dunno em, delete it.

Yes, I get all kinds of interesting mail lately, but it all goes straight in the trash bin!!
