Do not "bounce" these or any SPAM email. The sender is usually either a bogus account name/domain in which case you are only causing load on your ISP's server, or in the case of viruses the sender is a harvested email address out of someone else's address book, therefore bouncing it is returning it to the wrong person.
"Dropping" email is the best you can (and should) do.
