Default [RAC-Bulletin] Internet Worm/Virus

RAC Bulletin

Recently an Internet Worm programme, a type of virus that spreads from
computer to computer over the Internet, has been circulating which
purports to originate with RAC. A copy is attached below.

RAC does not report SPAM back to the originator and we have no Mail
System Administrator who would send out such a report to users of the
e-mail forwarder. SPAM is dumped when detected.

If you receive an e-mail like this one please just trash it and DO NOT
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS. If you do, the worm could be installed on your
computer!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear user , Mail system administrator of rac.ca would like
to let you know that,

We have detected that your e-mail account has been used to send a huge
amount of spam during the recent week.
Probably, your computer was compromised and now runs a trojaned proxy
server.

Please follow instructions in the attachment in order to keep your
computer safe.

Best wishes,
The rac.ca support team.
