Beware
Do you know of anything to warn us about?
Have a good day
xxxxx
With Christmas fast approaching, watch out for this...
The newest virus circulating is the UPS Delivery Failure. You will receive an email from UPS Packet Service along with a packet number. NOTE: The word packet is misspelled on this line. It will say that they were unable to deliver a package sent to you on such-and-such a date. It then asks you to print out the invoice copy attached. DON'T TRY TO PRINT THIS. IT LAUNCHES THE VIRUS! Pass this warning on to all your PC operators at work and home. This virus has caused millions of dollars in damage in the past few days.
Snopes confirms that it is real:(Updated in August, 2008)

There is also the Hallmark e-mail virus. This too snoops.com has also confirmed. If you get a e-mail from a known person. Do not open it without confirming that your friend or family member sent you a Hallmark card! This one attacks your hard drive!

It is a good thing I always know when I have stuff coming in. Thank you for passing this information though. I appreciate it very much. I try to stay up on these types of things.
