RE--Re: CAUTION: New wrinkles in Microsoft virus scam

[me]

i have not signed up for the newsletter....i read some of
these posts a few times a week....you do not need to
subscribe to microsoft....i still got 100 emails friday.

i change my email address on ebay and get spoof messages.
then change again and the spoofs change again....prople
think it is fun to hack into places like ebay/microsoft.

your name/computer is out there somewhere...this is like
driving your car down the road.....you are not alone.
