The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has warned computer
users that e-mails from scam artists pretending to be FBI agents
are spreading a computer virus. The e-mails tell recipients that
the FBI's Internet Fraud Complaint Center has monitored their
Internet use and found they have accessed illegal Web sites. The
e-mails then direct recipients to open an attachment and
complete a questionnaire. This is a bogus message. The
attachment contains a computer virus. DO NOT OPEN OR LAUNCH THE
ATTACHMENT. You should DELETE the e-mail immediately. As a
general rule, if you receive an e-mail that you are not
expecting, even if you know the sender, DO NOT OPEN IT OR LAUNCH
the attachment and DO NOT FORWARD the message. If you are not
sure, contact the sender to verify the e-mail. Otherwise, DELETE
the e-mail. The Information and Network Security team has put in
place appropriate protections to prevent the virus from
spreading. Current anti-virus definitions detect and block this
virus.
