Dodgy Emails
9 Answers
I keep getting emails from different companies telling me 'a friend/neighbour/relative has sent me a greetings card - along with a link. I'm also receiving lots of emails from different people with no subject heading but they have attachments. I haven't opened or linked into any but a worm and two viruses were found on my computer. Anyone know anything about these emails?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I keet getting these as well (I1m on mail.com) and I think the greetings cards are genuine (although not from a genuine person) but I`m not interested so just delete. I also get a lot of the others which often open because I delete the one next to it in mailbox.
Perhaps dzug could tell us how to delete a message without opening it - I have seen it explained but forgotten.

I told my son that I had been receiving lots of emails saying I had received a greetings card from a classmate/friend/family member and the latest is from a worshipper!. he looked on The Register (a computer news info type site) and they said that these emails contained a virus ( I think he said a trojan) which only a couple of anti virus software programs could deal with. best play safe and don't open them.
