Another Windows 7 Scam - E-Mail Fraud

Lately I've been targeting my posts on the new Windows 7 release. People or companies that want to damage you are taking the opportunity of this massive release to update their list of victims. For those that have already installed and/or updated to Windows 7 you might be enticed by an e-mail that wants you to confirm your Windows 7 Licence so that you MS Office will be activated. Something like that is not needed and you will be redirected to a malicious virus included web site.

AVOID THIS E-MAIL :

Subject: Email List -- Requires Confirmation
From: "Microsoft Office for Windows 7"
Date: Tue, 17 Nov 2009 12:00:29 -0800
To: <*******@imail.losrios.edu>
Priority: Normal
