• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

Hey folks
I've been seeing a rise in virused email attacks, mostly in the form of fake delivery notices from UPS, FedEx, DHL..etc
Anyone else being hit with these?

Yeah, I got one about a month ago stating my parcel was due to arrive in a couple of days , and to click on the link to track the progress.

Didn't click or open any link.

Wasn't expecting anything and nothing turned up.

Re: Same

pilottj,

I'm getting a series of what's called uniform traffic tickets from New york???
I don't even live in the Big Apple. I also get spam from ups and fedx. I just keep
deleting them. that's about all you can do. :)
 
I've been getting several a day for the last 2 weeks. I use webmail and the providers scanners catch them all. Just a damn nuisance to delete them all from the quarantine folder. :angryfir:
 
Lately I've been receiving spoof e-mails supposedly from Western Union and PayPal. They're always the standard "please update your account information..." or "we have detected some unauthorized activity on your account..." with a link to click on. I just delete 'em. The PayPal spoofs seem to come along after I do a PayPal transaction, which may or not be coincidental, but I've never had any problems with my account.
