Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Scam parcel delivery emails circulating
The email above just dropped into my inbox. It didn't seem quite right so I Googled it and found a warning on the UPS site. I've no idea what's in the attachment as I haven't opened it.

I get these quite regularly - opening the attachment is sure to unleash something horrible on your PC.
If you hover over any links, you'll see that the actual web address is something totally different.
They just get deleted straightaway!

UPS emails have had some nasty viruses in the attachment in the past.

Zip files are always suspicious unless you know who sent them, they are how most viruses and trojans are sent. Apparently the bad stuff can be hidden from virus-checkers, though my free Avast seems to pick up what it should. It's a race all the time between the goodies and baddies.
But zip files are really useful, I use them all the time to send out folders of photos, but I warn people first.
