| Hello people. I am very, very satisfied when I enter my Gmail inbox and when I see spam messages folder filled and waiting for me to delete the contents. I do that with a smile on my face. Since I started to track these for some time, I have noticed new type of scam. The link that is inside the message points to the IP address of some CoolPics server. I tried to follow the link, but it seems that the link is bad or broken. Whats the point of this scam than? I just dont get the picture. |

| Hi. Who knows? You probably use some well configured firewall, because when you receive reply from desired location as you click on the link, suspicious or unknown sites which respond are blocked. At least this is how Zone Alarm is acting. And about CoolPics, there numerous sites regarding this with very similar name. If that was already in your Gmails spam folder, than there is no fear about unknown behavior regarding your computer. |
