RE: URGENT WARNING to NTDEV Members: Spoofed email from O SR

It is very easy to fake mail header including From: field. Almost all
“modern” e-mail viruses do it. Some pick e-mail addresses from victim’s
mailbox and documents including IE cache, some can use pre-defined
addresses. Script kiddies and stupid people everywhere. Just ignore it and
be careful about e-mail attachments.

Subject: [ntdev] URGENT WARNING to NTDEV Members: Spoofed email from
OSR

NTDEV Members,

Please be aware that there’s an ugly-looking email that’s being spread,
that
purports itself to be from OSR.COM. This has a ZIP file attached. DO NOT
OPEN IT.

The mail has the following attributes:

From: xxxxx@osr.com
Subject: Important notify about your e-mail account.

A quick check of the header will reveal that THIS MAIL IS NOT FROM OSR.
We
expect that it is a virus of some kind.

We are investigating to see if there has been a security breach,

Peter
OSR
