A
new version of the
MYDOOM virus has
been released and it is very clever - especially since it
does not have an attachment! If
you receive an email message saying it is from
PayPal, with
the message:
- - - - - - - - copy starts here:
"Congratulations!
PayPal has successfully charged $175 to your credit card.
Your order tracking number is A866DEC0, and your item will be shipped
within
three business days. To see details please click this link .
DO NOT REPLY
TO THIS MESSAGE VIA EMAIL! This email is being sent by an
automated message system and the reply will not be received.
Thank you
for using PayPal."

DO NOT CLICK
and DO NOT FOLLOW
THE LINK!
It is when a person
clicks through that they are sent to a server that is infected, and
the virus goes active.
