>>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.

The message was saying scanned with Norton Antivirus. But I would be more careful...
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
