Hey all be careful, I saw this posted on another site too. They were getting strange emails all with an attachment of the same size. It is believed to be a virus, and I just got one myself. A good way to tell is that it starts with hello and end with best Regards, Admin.

Example:

"Hello,
The attached product is send as a part of our official campaign for the popularity of our product. You have been chosen to try a free fully functional sample of our product.
