LOL virus email

Post by Red Squirrel »

I got an email with the subject of VIRUS (W32/Netsky.z@MM) IN YOUR MAIL with a virus attachment.

I mean, they even tell me what virus it is. :lol: Do people actually open it anyway?!?! :rolleyes:

Oh, and I don't have an email virus checker so this is not generated by any server side scanning, it's the original thing!

Wow, I've disappeared for a few days!

Anyways, I've gotten something similar, yet dumber.

"There is a new worm/trojan going around! No antivirus program knows it yet! Download this file to trick the virus into thinking your computer already has it so you don't get it!

P.S. Your AntiVirus will go crazy when you download it, just ignore it."

Not those EXACT words but I swear that's basically what they said. :roflmao2:

So wise, they help you to fight the pledge. You haven't done it?

If it's stupid, but it works ; it's not that stupid.
