Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: VIRUS ALERT, do not open attached ZIP file from Oracle-L memb er
I've also received a number of messages claiming to be from
Dwilliams_at_lifetouch.com.
I was about to email Mr. Williams a nastygram but noticed the internet
headers show:
"Received: from server.net (62-128-174-17.iwayafrica.com
[62.128.174.17])"
Anyone know of a good way to stop these?

Mike,
You can easily assume that the mail message was spoofed. Our mail = system does not allow us to send messages that don't get scanned both = incoming and outgoing. And to boot I've received a number of messages = from the postmaster that claim I sent messages to interval people via = their external mail address. Wish I could catch that damned person! = This spoofing and spamming are getting so far out of hand I'm starting = to think they should bring back the guillotine for those people.

Hi ORACLE-L list posters,
Warning if you posted on Oracle-L lately...
I just got an email from dgoulet_at_vicr.com with ZIP attached. Yahoo scan did not detect virus, but my McAfee did trap the virus.

PS: Sorry if the email source was spoofed, but it did say it was from dgoulet_at_vicr.com.
