A vulnerable landscape
Karst graphic courtesy of the Geological Survey of Canada Karst, a poorly-known

Hello cavers,

That's a good point, following a link in email is a very bad idea,
they can be deceiving. Type in the name of the url yourself, or
google for the company name, bookmark that and use it.

Just a word of caution, also beware of what looks like a reputable site. I help
teach a class on credit card security for our agency and you'd be surprised how
real some of the sites look. If you don't have any past dealings with a
company, BEWARE.

Charles,
I wonder if this is a virus that harvests email addresses off your email
client software (Outlook)? Then sends it off to a zombie server
somewhere where it then emails all your friends from your address book?
I wonder if the victims all have something in-common - use the same

There is a lesson to be learned in all of this, use secure passwords,
keep an active virus scanner on your computer, a firewall and
spyware/malware scanners are good as well. Also, don't open
attachments and be wary of websites that are not from reputable
companies.

I just got a legitimate phone call from Mark Gee who assures me he's at home
and hasn't been mugged. He asked me to mention he's OK and please don't

I actually wonder if someone joins e-mail lists and gets a "feel" for
some people, finds their activity, etc (looking for someone who doesn't
