Exclamation Malware/Virus Warning
I received 2 emails yesterday from Costco on an undelivererable item.... COS-079616001. I don't go to Costco nor does any of the family. Email was from Manager at scarilemm dot com. Yeah it looked funny but I read it... at least I didn't save the file that was attached to download.

If you get one of these Do Not open it, just delete it. It contains a virus or malware that will mess up your IE. The only way I could fix it was a System Restore to the day before.

So, it'll mess up the 4 people on the planet still using IE?

(Sorry, I just couldn't refuse)

Thanks, but I must admit that I stole that one from Ron White.

Interesting.
How is WF different from FF?
They seem to both be made by Mozilla?

I get two or three of them a day. I can't find an Abuse@Costco or Stop Spoofing@Costco e-mail. I just forward them to customer service, webservice@contactcostco.com.
I started getting these after I tried to order from Wal-Mart website.
