Ok so today i received an email in my catcher account. It was from '[email protected]', but was quite suspicious, so i checked it out.
http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/3395/hallmarktv3.jpg
All the other links checked out (obviously), but this one linked to a .exe file, which is definitely strange.
I was kinda hoping someone could check it out.
The IP links to some random guys site 'erics world':
http://64.73.228.222/
And if you check the /~temp/ directory he gives you in the .exe link, it gives you a zip file, and a php shell offender whatever that is, which looks quite interesting, although my ignorance of all things computers kind of messes that up.
So yeah, anyone got any ideas? The email itself is quite believable so i don't like the thought of it still going around if the guy is spreading malicious code. |

To be fair though, identical scams are posted on this site all the time.
But i get your point .
I wonder if i can get this guys site shut down... he has to have hosting from somewhere. |

That's why I moved it here.
As I have said here before, opening an e-card, even if it's from your mother on your birthday, is the second best way to get a virus. |

Opening e-Cards is very much like making love to a beautiful woman...if you don't take the necessary precautions there is always the danger that some nasty virus will get get in through your back door.  |
