I got a "non-delivery of parcel" e-mail from a supposed DHL source. The detail was in the attatchment, which was in a zip file. The AV found the offending item immediately.

The stupidity was that I didn't look at my e-mail address (I can choose millions at cresby.com). It came to an address I parked in a relatively safe webmail place where I only look on well protected machines because it got known to spammers. But it nearly fooled me. The last time I got even this close was when I had one from [e-mail] - which is ME! Why would I e-mail me? But I nearly fell for it.

PS to spammers. Do yer worst with the e-mail above - it only wastes yer time.

That FedEx junk has been landing in my spam folder for months. Even after recent court rulings shutting down some huge spammers, 90% of the email out there at any given time is spam.

Rogers email does a great job on spam.
