[huud-l] FW: More virus information - phony email alerts

[Mary Andrus-Overley]

All,

Be aware of phony and e-mail alerts that appear to come from the UUA or
even from Heartland District and contain dangerous viruses.  See Jim
Austin's message below from UUA Information Technology Services.

Subject: More virus information - phony email alerts

There is a virus going around in this format:

It takes the form of a message that looks 
something like this: 

--- 
Dear  user  of  "(whatever)" mailing  system, 

Your e-mail account  will be  disabled because of improper using in next

three days,  if  you are  still wishing to use it, please,  resign your 
account information. 

Further details can be  obtained from attached file. 

For security purposes the attached file  is password protected. 
Password is "66420". 

Cheers, 
    The (whatever)  team 
--- 
The attachment is dangerous, Please delete it.  There is no message from
the
"uua.org team" that is real.  Thank you.
