UPS Spam

Just great. New spam. Imagine my surprise getting an email from UPS when I didn’t send anything their way. I did pause for like 2 seconds to think if I did – side effects of food induced drowsiness.

I was curious. What’s in that zip archive? Something NSFW would definitely help in curing my after lunch sleepiness.

So I clicked and Snow Leopard unzipped.

Alas, it was a .exe file. Off to the trash with you. Good thing those don’t work on a Mac.

Window friends beware. UPS spam is in town.

I wonder how it knows your full name and your Ph.D title.

Well, that’s how some of the more well-written spam works… Hopefully they end up being a company you use and you’ll fall for it ^^;

On a side note I don’t like UPS service. My import goods always end up bashed and covered in dirt from them. Then they still have the nerve to ask for a “handling charge fee”…

Well isn’t that just pleasant, like there wasn’t enough spam on the interwebs.
Sad part is they are getting even more clever by the day.

Yeah. It would appear that spammers are innovating too.

That is a good SPAM. But at least the spammer should have updated the date instead of keep reusing the same SPAM since December ^^

There is not such thing as good SPAM. Well, maybe except those that come in a can. ^^.
