Subject: Fw: You sent potentially unsafe content: Spam and
VIRUS
I "sent as an attachment" an email
I received, to Spamtrap3, which I knew was a fake "Security Center
Announcement", puportably from Microsoft. It had some active-x content,
which my browser blocks, and my browser said "it might not display properly
because I was blocking active-x".
I sent it because it was spam and I
received it, and if others received it they might be tempted to download
the claimed patch, which would really be a virus. However, I got back
the below message from Vircom. My question would be "Why I got the
message from them but I didn't reject the original mail?" (with the same
message)?
The original mail is a "Microsoft"
looking message purporting to warn
MicroSoft
News
Warning:
a new virus,
[EMAIL PROTECTED], can infect your computer.
etc...
