Re: Be careful



Title:
Hi Bob,
the spelling in the message coming in, was correct ( with th "e") and it was in capital characters.
I am not very surprised by these things, I get many of them per week ( or sometime per day )
and usually a few bounced back from servers, as if I was sending them to people I never
heared of.
Well, that is life, ( and most of this must be somebody's bussines )
Cheers
Oscar

Hey Oscar,

Since that's me (at work), I'm curious.  I never saw the email, and obviously
never sent it.  Can you tell me when it was sent?  Or if anyone has a copy,
forward it to me?  I suspect it's a spoof, and this could be seen by looking at
a full set of headers.  Also the time would be interesting, as I have a laptop,
and take it home with me daily.

And did you misspell the e-mail address (louisvill - note no 'e' at the end
where there should be)?  This would enforce the spoof notion.

This e-mail is sent from Linux, and it does have an attachment, which is my GPG
signature of this e-mail message.  I sign my messages as my domain
(logicalchaos.org) is being spoofed by spammers.  I know as I receive around 30k
bounced spam messages a month...

Thanks,
Rob

Hello all TASS,
this is just to give you a warning,
a "misterious"  message coming from CreagRS@louisvill.stortek.com  got 
to my mail box
I deleted it because it does not give any "subject, and in addition, 
there is a ".exe" attachment.
There are too many viruses going around
Cheers
and happy tassing
Oscar
