Hi folks, This is totally off topic and most of you have probably heard about this already, or at least something like this, but this is a slightly new spin. Today I received a message purporting to be from Paypal, stating my account would expire within 5 business days. (I happen to have one account with two different email addresses and only received this at my secondary address, so knew it was not real, but others might not be so lucky.) This email came with an attached executable file, and in the email you are instructed to run the file and follow related instructions to verify your membership. It also states that you should not send any information over the internet, and notes that it will not ask you for your password. This makes it sound more realistic after recent identity theft emails, etc. However, the attachment is a virus. Do not download, open or run this attachment. The email comes from "[log in to unmask]" and looks very legit. I know a lot of people on this list use Paypal for shelter donations and auctions, etc., and wanted to warn you all before someone gets tricked into infecting their system!
