Interesting Snippets from Streetlife.com

Warning - Yet Another Scam

Local Conversations in Buckskin

I received a rather innocuous looking email today from'donotreply@dart-charge.co.uk' (Dart is an automated road toll payment system). There is no wording at all - only an attachment called 'PaymentReceipt' and that was in .xml format (Excel).

The properties of the email show it originated in Brazil. If you receive a similar mail, under no circumstances open the attachment because ALL Office documents can run programmes called macros as soon as the document is opened. Once that happens your computer is doomed!
