E-Mail Hoax - Fraudulent UPS E-Mails Try to Deliver Malware Fraudulent e-mails that claim to be from United Parcel Service
(UPS) are now sweeping through inboxes so keep your eyes open for them. These
e-mails usually contain a phony tracking number in the subject heading, and
lead you to believe that a UPS shipment could not be delivered. You're then
instructed to open up the attachment to correct the delivery address, print
out a waybill or invoice, and pick up the package from a UPS office. See an
example of a UPS scam e-mail below: Hit A Home Run With Polar Bundles! Polar has several bundles to choose
from starting at only $53.95 per month! Still have Dial-Up Internet? For only
a few dollars more per month you can receive High Speed Internet in a bundle!

messages to many recipients without displaying their addresses and
