SPAM and possible VIRUS to many MV members purporting to be from TIME reporter
Moms View Message Board: Parenting Discussion: SPAM and possible VIRUS to many MV members purporting to be from TIME reporter
I received the following email in my moderator email box, which can only have come from skimming email addresses. I am copying the email below. I urge you to NOT reply to it. I checked the TIME website and they do not list this person as a TIME reporter. I have forwarded the email to TIME. It is possible that a virus is associated with this email, so please do NOT answer it or open any attachments. From: "Kyle Krevitz" <kyle_krevitz@hotmail.com> To: I have deleted the email addresses here as many of them are MV members' emails and I don't want to put them on the board without the members' permission. Subject: FWD: Your favorite food Date: Mon 07/26/04 10:35 AM Attachments Name Type Save View Message text/plain Save Dear Reader, I'm Kyle Krevitz from Time magazine, doing an upcoming article on favorite foods. After talking with several of my fellow reporters I have decided to put conventional methods aside and do an e-mail survey rather than use other, more traditional methods such as the poll. If those who answer would kindly write a little about why their food is their favorite, they will have a chance to be quoted in Time. Of course, I'll never get the responses if you just forward this e-mail to all your contacts, you must also add my e-mail kyle_krevitz@hotmail.com) to your sending list. So in summary you must write your: 1. Favorite food 2. Why you like it 3. Name (or "anonymous" if you prefer to be quoted anonymously) Your response is appreciated, Kyle Krevitz ------------------------------------- Kyle Krevitz Reporter, Time Magazine kyle_krevitz@hotmail.com
