RE: Be aware guys - Someone called BRAD sent me a virus DIRECTLY :-(

[Keith Doxey <ukha@xxxxxxx>]

Thats why I sent this warning.

It didnt look like the typical virus type email. It looked like a genuine
email from someone called BRAD. If it had been from one of the guys on the
list I would not really have been suspicious of it. Thats what makes it
dangerous. :-(

I wish I had copied the text now ! DOH !!!!

The Sircam virus is spreading like wildfire at the moment. The infected
e-mail usually starts with the line "Hi! How are you?" (or in
Spanish
"Hola como estas ?". Our e-mail server has filtered out loads of
infected
e-mails so far. The guy who sent the e-mail is a victim of the virus, not
the perpetrator. The attached infected file is a random file copied from
the victim's PC so any file, including files with sensitive information or
your company's top secret appliaction zipped source, may be sent out by
this virus.
