Greeting Cards?

[W. Watson]

I've been getting a fair number of supposed greeting cards of late. I don't
open them, since they don't say who sent them. Is this a new way to send
viruses?

Not a new way but one that has been pretty prevalent lately.

Thanks. I should have asked the same question about PDFs too. I've been
getting one a day of late. No body, but with an attachment.

Same answer, different search.

Yes, true, but sometimes a phone works wonders, as I've found out on a
number of occasions.
