I received "A Hallmark E-Card." Beware--it's a trojan


Recommended Posts

This is my e-card: bad spelling and all--hope this helps someone.

(And no, I did not download the trojan.)

I got two of these and deleted them. Then I got another from another card company... maybe American Greetings?

 

All of them said something strange like, "Here's a card from your friend." The second Hallmark one did actually look legitimate. Watch out!

but it DID have a sender's name. It was from George. The only problem is that I don't know anyone named George, so I deleted it. I have told my friends and family that I won't open any e-cards unless they personally e-mail me to tell me they are sending (or have just sent) one.

 

Imagine all the good that could happen if these criminal types would put their energy and brains to good use. Sheesh!
