>We got an e-mail addressed with the correct e-mail address from Eddie Garcia with the subject August Payment Summary, Invoice #17385, message body "collection efforts with this Past-Due Account form" and attachment "Invoice.doc" I did open the attachment in preview in a fear we may have some bills unpaid for. And it was just the usual "buy software" crap...


Never-ever open an attachment like that unless you positively know this Eddie Garcia, the company he works for, and that you owe them money on that invoice. It is a very common scam nowadays. If your computer is not properly patched and if the attachment were malicious you could have been (be) infected by now.
