Please Scam Me – Not
Yeah, right.

Delete

I know this is stating the obvious, but it is worth repeating.  Don’t open file attachements from people you don’t know.  No matter how creditable it appears, it’s simply not.

I have been seeing this one (see image) or some variation of it quite often lately.  It is always formatted the same and includes a PDF file attachment.  This version talks about a great new weight loss thing-a-ma-jig.  Others have said the attachment was an invoice for an order recently placed.  Bogus.

At best it is a spam advertisement, at worst it is a virus.  Mark it as spam, delete it and then forget about it.
