Hi

On similar topic, I have been getting quite a few emails in recent days
stating in effect that "you have been sent a postcard" with a link provided
to view it. Do not go to the link as it will install malware that tracks
keystrokes. Unlikely to be picked up by virus checking as the emails
themselves are "clean". Supposedly affects only users of Microsoft browsers,
as other browsers are usually configured by users to stop scripts without
the user checking.

Another common spam recently is the attached pdf file. I havent opened any
but they are apparently the next move by stock spruikers after giving up on
text and jpgs which are now often killed by anti-spam systems.  Apparently
harmless unless you buy the stock!
