Holiday virus...for your computer?
#1
The newest virus circulating is the UPS Delivery Failure . You will receive an email from UPS Packet Service along with a packet number . NOTE: The word packet is mis-spelled on this line . It will say that they were un-able to deliver a package sent to you on such and such a date . It then asks you to print out the invoice copy attached . DON'T TRY TO PRINT THIS . IT LAUNCHES THE VIRUS! Pass this warning on to all your PC operators at work and home . This virus has caused Millions of dollars in damage in the past few days . Since a lot of us get packages delivered to us by these two agencies during the holidays. I felt compelled to inform you all. Sometimes we are in a hurry and don't check things closely. This is one of those things we can over look too!

Snopes confirms that it is real:

I fear the day they learn to write English....well.

The bad spelling and poor grammar are usually the best tip-offs to a virus.
