Lordy, tons of PM viruses...

[Invader J]

Is anyone else getting a lot of viruses to their PictureMail account? I forget the new strain's name, but it usually has a subject of "Your_Password" or "You visit illegal websites". Dealt with filtering this one out on my servers at work a long while back, but I was just reading there's a new strain. Doesn't Sprint have any safeguards against this? It's really aggravating getting these at 3am - and I've never given my PM address to anyone. :irked:

Not me, someone else posted this though... About the FBI sending them a message.

Is anyone else getting a lot of viruses to their PictureMail account? I'm getting hammered too - probably 100 in the last 3 days. And this morning one came in to text messaging. - sheureka

Here's to Sprint doing an IP trace on the bastids...

I'm getting it on one of my lines, too. I think it's because when they first started the ability to create a custom address, I made it generic (my first name@pm.sprint.com) which makes it an easy target.

I get probably 50 of them a day somedays -- it's a good thing I have unlimited SMS because of the notifications.
