ALERT - THIS NOTICE WAS RECEIVED FROM MY HUSBAND'S INTERNATIONAL COMPANY'S TECH. DEPARTMENT. THEY ARE VERY RELIABLE ABOUT VIRUS ALERTS:
Unfortunately, someone has used the terror attacks of Sept 11, to lure victims of a new email worm.
The subject line will be the following: "All people" and appears to be from "main@world.com."
There is an Sept11.exe attachment. It claims to have pictures as new evidence of the 911 attacks, but there is nothing to see. Please be aware at your home machines, and if you check email outside of Company email (ie, Hotmail, AOL etc),
Don't open the attachement and delete the message.
Norton or McAfee's anti-virus with auto-update is the way to go. They update your computer anti-virus software just about as quickly as they become know.
"Dear ladies and gentlemen! The given letter does not contain viruses, and is not Spam. We ask you to be in earnest to this letter. As you know America and England have begun bombardment of Iraq, cause of its threat for all the world. It isn't the truth. The real reason is in money laundering and also to cover up traces after acts of terrorism September, 11, 2001. Are real proofs of connection between Bush and Al-Qaeda necessary for you? Please! There is a friendly dialogue between Bin Laden and the secretary of a state security of USA in the given photos. In the following photo you'll see, how FBI discusses how to strike over New York to lose people as much as possible. And the document representing the super confidential agreement between CIA and Al-Qaeda is submitted to your attention. All this circus was specially played to powder brains!! You'll find out the truth. Naked truth, instead of TV showed. For your convenience, and to make letter less, all documentary materials (photos and MS Word documents) are located in one EXE file. Open it, and all materials will be installed on your computer. You will receive the freshest and classified documents automatically from our site. It isn't a virus! You can trust us absolutely. We hope, that it will open your eyes on many things occurring in this world."
what a bunch of a**holes.
Now there's some brilliant social engineering.
