Jul. 23rd, 2007 01:10 pmWhat the hell is wrong with the server guys here? For an hour now, there's been an IM phishing scam being distrubited via messages being sent by infected computers asking that people click a link and log in to a site. I figure it's probably an account hijacker.
We have yet to see any kind of mass notification and/or warning about it from the server guys, despite getting hammered with questions and notes from people who either clicked it and logged in or want to report something fishy. C'mon guys, seriously; it takes less than a minute to write a note, direct it to the everyone list, and hit 'send'.
But they don't, so I'm just sitting here with a form letter emailing people back. Yes, this appears to be a virus. Please do not click links from suspicious looking IMs, you dumbshit. Bleah bleah bleah. This is pathetic.
Faire was wonderful yesterday. I have some pictures that are keeping me happy today as I look at them from time to time. That plus the thought that Andrea and I are going to work on my rèsumè tonight after I clean the bathroom.
