COMPUTER USER BEWARE!!!!

e-mail to a friend | print this | link to this

Contributed by: Paul Madigan on 5/21/2008

Just recently, I received a e-mail from a distant friend in Florida. The problem with this e-mail it came the way of a computer service called Hi5.
If you received any e-mail from any members on your personal e-mail list, please beware, be very aware!!!
Once you open this e-mail,(from Hi5),Hi5 will take all your personal e-mail addresses from your computer and e-mail everyone that they wish you to become a member of your own private circle of friends.
Then you will learn why you shouldn't of open the e-mail in the first place from Hi5. You will start getting email from stranger and unwanted junk mail.
Remember, always check it out before you open any unknown e-mails. Also be aware that our area has been receiving IRS e-mail for the Government tax returns that are do shortly at every one's mailboxes. The e-mail states that the(the IRS has only allow $186.22 of the $600.00 do your account).This is totally false and you should not open it at all.The( IRS )will not e-mail you for any personal information or require a citizen's to fill on line forms. This is mostly done through the U.S. Mail or at their IRS offices.
This just a heads up for thoses who aren't aware that these problems do happen in our community. No matter what the problem may be, just take a moment to call the local police dept. and let them do their job. Helping you understand the facts and continueing to live a safe, enjoyable life in your community.
