Strange email?
Have been getting a few strange emails lately, mostly saying there from UPS about the tracking number of a parcel i sent (which i havn't) then today i get this and it's rather strange.
"Hello! Attention! The wire sent to Kiril Fadeev, Moscow, Russia has been blocked by our security service. Your credit card issuing bank has halted the transaction by the demand of the Federal Criminal Investigation Service (case No. 05144 since the recipient has been undergoing the international retrieval by the InterPol. Please contact the closest Western Union office and make sure you have your ID card, the credit card that was used for making the payment, and the invoice file with you. (The invoice file is attached to this message; please print it out and hand it to our agent.) You can find the address of the closest Western Union agent on our website at http://www.westernunion.com Thank you!" P.S. This wasn't addressed to me and i'm not about to open the attachment, Virus scanner won't like it ![]() Anybody else getting anything like this? Last edited by Andy3536; 24-08-2008 at 04:51 PM.. |

Re: Strange email?
Like all other spam e-mails - just delete it. If it doesn't reference you personally, or you weren't expecting it, it's most likely a load of spam.
This is clearly one of those e-mails. You have to give it too them, spam is at least coherant these days. |
