An email from a friend this morning says:
Wow! You might or might not be familiar with this virus, but you, like I, would be susceptible to it. An official looking FedEx notice arrives via email advising you FedEx was unable to deliver a parcel, and you should print out the attached label and take it to your nearest FedEx office to retrieve your package. Only if you download the label you are toast! I know this because I fought to override my virus protection this morning, anxious to retrieve my wine delivery from California, which I assumed the package was, after all the difficulty in getting it shipped here. Apparently my virus protection software won out over my blundering and my system is hopefully still sound. I know this because I called the local FedEx office, planning to request that I email them the notice and they print it, and they told me about the scam threat.
My wine shopping and I have never had a problem. Just a perpetual race between the bankruptcy court and Hell.--Rogov
