A warning about attachments and links.

Wed Sep 19, 2012 10:42 pm

Just to remind everyone here that it's not a good idea to open up any attachments or links a scammer sends you. Remember that scammers are often using computers in internet cafes that could have picked up anything. When we check the links or open anything, we do so either after running a virus check on it, or on a computer that uses Linux instead of Windows. Quite often both. The scammer may not even be aware he's sent you a nasty, or he may do it deliberately to try and get your login details by sending you a keylogger. Keep yourself safe, double check everything your scammer sent you.
