Re: Virus ! Don't Open mail Called " [DTXpress] Re: Firts Timer Needs Advice"

2002-10-18 by Walt

Hi Dopmi,

I am concerned to hear about this, but first, my email
address is wgardus@..., not
wgardus@yahoogroups.com.  I do not respond directly to
people's posts unless they first contact me directly. 
This specific post you mentioned was one that I
responded to, but again, I responded directly to the
post, with my response going back to the group's email
address, not a specific user.  I have sent many emails
this week, and have Norton running on my PC, so it
does appear that someone is trying to look 'like' me,
but they are not me.  Also, the way Yahoo mail works,
any attachments are scanned by Norton AV before Yahoo
mail allows them to be attached to an email, so I do
not know how this could come from anyone using Yahoo
mail (yahoogroups.com is not a Yahoo email domain).  

To the general membership, I would warn everyone that
if you receive anything from a
wgardus@yahoogroups.com, it is not me, and as has been
pointed out in these notes - it may well contain a
virus.

I will certainly answer any questions that anyone may
have on this issue - I do not want my name or
reputation associated with this type of activity in
any way!

To our Moderator, can we ask you to block this
wgardus@yahoogroups.com email address, and if
appropriate, report this activity to the Yahoo Groups
support people?

Thanks,
Walt
