I have been hit with an irregular amount of spam to my Adam account lately. Not your usual Viagra, inflate your penis type stuff, but virus comtaining emails. Pretty easy to spot. They come with 'Your ammended contract' or 'order confirmation' byline, and have an 18.2kb Zip file attached. The last 2 have been from UPS with my consignment number and quote attached. This happened just after I replied on the Inspo list, so I assume that server there is compromised, but just curious if any of you guys have been getting like to your Adam accounts.

I will post to the Inspo list if you guys have not been getting any more than normal.

We've been getting them through our spam filter at work too, and we have a pretty good system apparently. So i think they're everywhere.
