I just got a
call from a classmate.
He received
an email from FedEx saying
"FedEx:
Delivery Problems Notification." He clicked on the link
and it
downloaded a virus.
He is paying
an expert to remove it.
I called
FedEx and received this information:
Fraudulent Email Alert
We have received reports of fraudulent
emails with the subject line "FedEx: Delivery Problems Notification."
These emails can contain links which, when clicked, will connect
the user to a site which then infects their computer.
These links can point to any number of
infected websites all over the globe. Some of these sites may look like
fedex.com, while others do not.
If you receive a message matching the
