fake UPS email floating around

I just got an e-mail from a buddy who works at UPS.

Quote:

Hi all,
We received notice that there is a fake UPS email floating around. Basically, it says something about you having a UPS waybill and need to open an attachment to get it. As always, don't open any attachments... Besides, we deliver stuff in these nifty brown trucks, not emails.

I got a similar warning on my work email from the company IT department. In the 6 months I've been with my current employer this is the first virus email warning I've gotten. I assume that it looks pretty legit.

Been circulating a while

I had a spate of these across several of our email addresses maybe a couple of months ago. They got trashed by my mail washer but I did see them all on the blacklist. Probably received a dozen or so; not to all email addies though as we have two hosts. The ones with host A got them, the ones with host B didn't.

The paypal ones seem to have started again though...
