Dude, viruses have been sending to addresses in (a) address books and (b) found on web sites for about 2 years now. It is nothing new. The topic is silly.
Its a Virus... no one was hacked. These emails hav ebeen going around fo rmonths.
SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
Well it would have to be an email harvesting virus that sends the email to someone mailing with DM..
But I guess its possible
it is, i can turn my proxies into an army of distributed mailing system that can download emails off my site or collect them off home computers (files,address book, and msn messanger) and then it starts mailing them
This morning I got two dozen of these emails to different email addresses, only one of which would be located in our database. Someone is just mass spamming, that's all.
I've been getting spam to my lightspeed webmaster email address for several months. Started with just a few of those bank scam deals occasionally. Now I get it for everything- porn, pills, rolex, etc.
I get a couple of those so called WashMutual emails every day along with many other Banks and financial institutions. Mostly WashMutual and PayPal.
I assume the scumbags sending these are trying to get account info by tricking the recipients into thinking it is a legit email getting them to login and enter their information. If you check their links you'll see that you are not going to the real site. (usually an ip address)
