1. wtf is AHC?Dear Valued Client,
We strongly believe that your account may have been compromised. Due to this, we cancelled the last ACH transactions:
-(ID: 2878509)
-(ID: 08344503)
initiated from your bank account by you or any other person, who might have access to your account.
Detailed report on initiated transactions and reasons for cancellation can be found in the attachment.
2. What transaction?
3. other person? - Who?
4. Yes, please cancel...
Then my NOD32 told me:
And that on a non public email..__________ ESET NOD32 Antivirus warning, version of virus signature database 6449 (20110909) __________
Warning, ESET NOD32 Antivirus found the following threats in the message:
Report-8764.zip - a variant of Win32/Kryptik.RZB trojan - deleted
Report-8764.zip > ZIP > Report-8764.exe - a variant of Win32/Kryptik.RZB trojan - was a part of the deleted object
That email address is ONLY present on my GoDaddy account, not on any site or anything like that..
Scary, GoDaddy selling emails?

I know it's a scam... the problem is HOW did they know the email address?

Could be a random email generator was used and it was simply coincidence? Pretty sure Godaddy wouldn't sell emails, there barely strapped for cash and it would be a PR nightmare

Those emails have been circling the globe for many months by the millions....
There are actually a few dozen different emails compsed all saying the same thing a different way....
The email addresses are being sold and traded by EVERYONE including but not limited to, banks, finance companies, insurance companies, ISP's, survey companies, retailers, hackers (who have stolen databases by anyone they could steal from)
If you have an email, that anyone has emailed to or is in any database anywhere, eventually it will get sold...
