IT here at work sent out a big warning a couple of hours ago.

“Do Not Open the Google Docs Email You Receive Today: It May Be a Scam”
Best course is to have nothing to do with Google.
I wouldn’t click on anything with “GOOGLE” in it. Nor would I ever “GOOGLE IT”
I don’t click on anything with Google in it’s name. Hopefully I’m safe. Commie bastiges.
Got one of those the other day. Curious -clicked on it.
Tried to connect to the Goog. LMBAO (Laughed My Bloody Arse Off). Because:
1. No google account.
2. No google docs created, accessed or saved. Ever.
3. No GMail account.
4. Internet Access is not conneced to a GMail account.
5. No “Contacts List” to access.
and finally:
6. Running Linux. WinDoze commands or any Outlook or Outlook Express functions are not functional in a ‘nix environment.
I also love it when I get sent a pop-up that says that My Windows Machine has Been Infected! Has a Virus! A Bootsector Virus! No really -go here to update your files and repair your corrupted system!
*laughs uproriously* :)
Somebody younger than 60 still falls for this junk?
