A VIRTUAL CARD FOR YOU HOAX
Information about the A Virtual Card For You Hoax:
The message sent as a warning is a Hoax.Recently a new virus was discovered that was classified by MICROSOFT www.microsoft.com and by MCAFEE www.mcafee.com to be the most damaging of all time! This virus was discovered late yesterday by MCAFEE and still there is no development of a vaccine!
This virus simply writes zeros on the hard drive, where the vital information for the operation of the PC is kept. The virus activates in the following manner:
1. By email it is received with the title 'A VIRTUAL CARD FOR YOU', when opening the message, it sends itself to all in the address list soon...
2. It hangs the machine, forcing the user to reboot the system.
3. AT the moment in which the keys ctrl+alt+del or the RESET button is pressed, it writes zeros to the hard drive making it unusable forever.
By the previous information, please, take precaution with the use of electronic mail and, of course, if you receive an email which you do not know the origin of, simply delete it without opening.
Please, send this message to the most people possible!!!!
In a few hours yesterday, this virus caused panic in New York, according to CNN www.cnn.com.
