If in Doubt, Don't Open

Last Update: March 24, 2012

I just received an email from DHL about a package they were not able to deliver. They sent a pdf, and instructed me to open it. Since I'm not expecting a package, this was a red flag. They used the DHL logo, and telephone number.

I called customer service, and was informed that someone is sending around a virus.

It looks legit at first glance. That's why I am warning you about it. I was almost taken in.

If you receive the same email, don't open the pdf. Forward the whole thing to:

fraud.alert@dhl.com

Sounds like a variety of Marshmallow to me.

Yeah, but not as sweet.
