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.
