Good point Nicholas, but it is difficult to assess the danger without the
attachment.  In retrospect, I should have sent a jpeg showing the problem.

 

I must admit, with a little more stealth, this might have caught me out.
The poor English should have been a flag but like 50% of Americans, I am
waiting for a few shipments that this could have been related to.  I wonder
how many others received the email.

Hmm. Sending malicious attachments to a MSU mailing list? 

 

I think we may have our first suspect in the Redwater Scandal.

This looks like a particularly dangerous email load - a credible looking web
page attachment which offers an executable "invoice"  Unless I am mistaken,
this could catch quite a few users.

You have attached the invoice for your package delivery.
