TLG Monthly Mail Warning
    #3642884 - 01/18/05 10:41 AM (19 years, 1 month ago)

I know TLG is no longer a sponsor, BUT many of the users here receive his monthly email. Today I received an email titled "Re: Hello." Attached is an image and a password protected rar file. In the rar file there is a file named "frobvbkn.exe" which is infected with the I-Worm.Bagle.n virus.

Hopefully this wont hurt TLG's business, but I'd rather everyone knows about this before they infect themselves.

How about you email TLG and tell him this, so he can send out an email to the potentially affected parties? I am sure this would be a better strategy than posting it here.

I just want to let everyone know that the virus has not been sent by us, but rather it's spoofing us.

It certainly has nothing at all to do with our monthly mailer.

As far as I know, tlg@tlgexpress.com is not even a valid e-mail address.

The virus most likely got ahold of a list of shroomery members and NOT tlg customers.

Anyway, we have not sent any e-mails out in the last 3 days, so if you see something from tlg@tlgexpress, just delete it, thanks.

Also, I received the strange e-mail myself and I'm not even on the TLG Monthly Mailer list.

Check the headers folks, it's not from TLG.
