Is there an attachment that is a .zip file? If so, avoid!

Did a quick search for the text and it came up with this: http://sanesecurity.blogspot.co.uk/

I'm calling scam.

Haven't opened any other results but feel free to google...

Doesn't say zip.. says esale doc.. then view or download.

I won't click on them anyway .. I'll just wait and see if anything arrives

Screams scam to me. Doesn't address you by name. Invites you to click on something - why would that be needed if you'd bought something and they were sending you the goods. Doesn't include any of your details. And the biggest clue of all is, you're baffled because you haven't a clue what they're referring to.

Edit: and they ask you to sort it "immediately". Another scam tick box for me.

Definite scam

We keep on getting these at our work emails and the attachment is either a PDF, word doc or excel spreadsheet.We are getting about 5 a day!

I've just had the same e-mail in my junk folder - although the company are real - I think they must have a virus that is sending the emails out - mine was from someone called "Anna" with a Deluxebase email.

I have emailed them from the website contact details to let them know they may have a problem.

Hi,

Certainly don't open the document attachment. It's a word document, which contains a macro (program).

If Macros are enabled in word, the macro will auto-download malicious content from various servers around the globe onto your windows system.

Macro malware is the in-thing again...

Cheers,
