Here are 2 Scams. Be aware!!!!
1 - Delta Air Lines Malware Emails
This email purports to be from US based air carrier Delta Air Lines and claims to contain information about a recent online ticket purchase. It instructs recipients to open an attached file, ostensibly to print out a "passenger itinerary receipt." However, the email is not from Delta and opening the attached file can install malware that may allow hackers to control the infected computer and steal personal and financial information.
2 - Economic Stimulus Bill Scam
Fraudsters are using the logo of the Internal Revenue Service, combined with the promise of federal stimulus money, to dupe cash-strapped people into divulging credit-card information on a phony Web site. It's the latest example of attempted identity theft rising amid the current economic turmoil, hitting a range of areas from mortgages to tax returns. The email, which displays photos of President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden, claims to offer people their portion of the recently approved stimulus bill. Recipients are instructed to click an email link and enter their personal financial information on a counterfeit Web site.
