Wiking Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 So I got this message today and as I hate virus so much, which I'm sure you also do i wanted to warn you about this. The message goes like this: BIG VIRUS COMING !!! PLEASE READ & FORWARD !! Get this E-mail message sent around to your contacts ASAP. PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS! You should be alert during the next few days. Do not open any message with an attachment entitled 'POSTCARD FROM HALLMARK, 'regardless of who sent itto you. It is a virus which opens A POSTCARD IMAGE, which 'burns' the whole hard disc C of your computer. This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address in his/her contact list. This is the reason why you need to send this e-mail to all your contacts It is better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it. If you receive a mail called' POSTCARD,' even though sent to you by a friend, do not open it! Shut down your computer immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starlight Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 OMFG JONAS DON'T TELL ME YOU FOLLOW THESE STUPID CHAINS THINGS ! This is crap, It's not true, they're only making a virus up and send an e-mail to everyone in their contacts who will then send it to other people and so on ... And everybody gets annoyed !

x-Decoy Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 I was on msn with my friend earlier and it came up that she said "Hey here you can see my photos before I upload them" and I clicked on it [like duh cos i thought it was her sending it and i can trust her] but it was a zipped file and I opened it. Then she said it wasn't her who sent that and to delete it, which I did.. but I opened it and I don't know where it went =/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Komomaan Posted August 22, 2008 Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 I think I got one of those through my hotmail account. Luckily I've deleted it before opening it, I get too much spam there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
