Another scam email titled "Express Services notification" is currently doing rounds.
The mail contains an attachment purporting to contain information about a parcel (allegedly sent to your home address) and its tracking number.
The mail contains an attachment purporting to contain information about a parcel (allegedly sent to your home address) and its tracking number.
Now if you receive such emails, I would advice you not to download the (ZIP) file attachment as it contains a potentially harmful virus, which might install on computer once you un-zip the contents of the attachment. It is also apparent that mostly Yahoo users have been targeted by this scam.
Safety tip : Always keep your anti-virus updated to protect yourself from such threats and attacks.
An example email is reproduced below :
Important Information!
