There’s another “You’ve been sent a greeting card” spam mail making the rounds. In some cases, it may get through your spam filters.

The message includes a link to click on to get your card. Clicking on the link will result in an attempt to download a virus on your computer.

If your anti-virus is current, it should block the viral install attempt. But “Safe Computing Practices” are that you should be very wary about clicking on links in emails. And greeting cards emails are a common malware-distribution technique.

Our recommendation is to just delete greeting cards messages.
