Title: Beware (No Joke)
Post by: David on Feb 05, 2009, 09:13:57
If you get an e-mail along the lines of'Osama Bin Laden Captured'
or 'Osama Hanged' , don't open the Attachment!!!!



I have copied from an Email I recieved from a very good friend who lives in Australia if anyone here recieves this DO NOT open .Im not brilliant at this but if the wording is wrong someone here will advise me or amend

Take care everyone

Hope this helps

Thanks, David, there's a number of email nasties doing the rounds right now. The best advice is don't open anything unless you are absolutely sure of the sender.

If I'm sending an email attachment to someone I know, I usually send them a quick mobile text, just to let them know it's safe.
