FBI Warns Public of E-mail Scams

The FBI is warning people to be careful when opening any spam emails. After receiving a rise in complaints, the FBI suggests deleting any unsolicited emails....

From Conservative Voice --

In one scam, an e-mail recipient receives an electronic greeting card containing malware (malicious software). The cards, which are also referred to as e-cards or postcards, are being sent via spam.

In another scam, fraudulent e-mails misrepresent the FBI and/or Director Robert S. Mueller III and give the appearance of legitimacy due to the usage of pictures of the FBI Director, seal, letter head, and/or banners.

The third is spam e-mail which claim to be from an official of the U.S. military sent on behalf of American soldiers stationed overseas.
