i got this from a friend that works at lexus-nexus (he's computer tech)

Attention Virus Warning
Is the UPS news release on it too.

Got this notice and also got the email with the attempted virus in it.
Since I had not sent nor was expecting any UPS shipments I had already
deleted it.

However be warned.

Attention Virus Warning

We have become aware there is a fraudulent e-mail being sent that says
it is coming from UPS and leads the reader to believe that a UPS
shipment could not be delivered. The reader is advised to open an
attachment reportedly containing a waybill for the shipment to be picked
up.

This e-mail attachment contains a virus. We recommend that you do not
open the attachment, but delete the e-mail immediately.

UPS may send official notification messages on occasion, but they rarely
include attachments. If you receive a notification message that includes
an attachment and are in doubt about its authenticity, please contact
[email protected].

Please note that UPS takes its customer relationships very seriously,
but cannot take responsibility for the unauthorized actions of third
parties.
