Exclamation Email-Spam

Ok well... I got this e-mail in my inbox today when I fixed my computer.

"
Dear Moonlit-magick Member,

Your e-mail account was used to send a huge amount of unsolicited spam messages during the recent week. If you could please take 5-10 minutes out of your online experience and confirm the attached document so you will not run into any future problems with the online service.

If you choose to ignore our request, you leave us no choice but to cancel your membership.

Virtually yours,
The Moonlit-magick Support Team






+++ Attachment: No Virus found
+++ Moonlit-magick Antivirus - www.moonlit-magick.net"

I remember seeing some mailor demons. Though, I was wondering if this it self was a scam or spam. It gave me an attachment, but I dont want to download it. Then get another virus. So I guess what I want to know is is this thing for real, because I do not have a moonlit-magick.net support team.

This happens to us too, it is happening to everyone on the web. Usually stops within a few days. Ours say the same thing, even says Surpass Antivirus ..
Don't open the attachments...

Yep. I fixed it by asking support to reject HELO's that said they were from my domain but were from another IP address...
