    And this is news? Anonymous -- 02/08/07

    We have been seeing this on mail servers for over a month now, its not new and it astounds me that people can be stupid enough to fall for this - How many times do we have to tell people to install Anti Virus and not click on emails they dont know the sender of? This is not new and frankly anyone stupid enough to still fall for this, paypal or credit card scams deserves what they get.
