Hi George - Yes! I've had this one about 3 times now, and like you say, it 
looks the real deal, that's why I asked on list; I was suspicious of it, and 
didn't think it could be genuine as it had found my inbox without me 
knowingly inviting it in! -

| Watch out for another where the Subject is "CNN Alerts: My
| Custom Alert".
|
| Crafty this one, as it has a genuine CNN link, as well as a
| link called "Full story", which goes to a Rumanian address.

| Hi George and all - I haven't clicked on any links, even
| though they look
| very genuine, I didn't sign up for this stuff, so I know
| it's spam, it just
| looks more professional than the usual dross that gets
| delivered! -

|| We've been plagued with the too, Andy.  Whatever you do,
|| don't open them or click on any links in them.
||
|| I believe this may be the source of a nasty "FakeAlert-AQ"
|| Trojan we got on one of our systems on Tuesday, which
| defied
|| McAfee, Microsoft Defender and all sorts. I may know more
|| later when I speak to McAfee again.
