Just thought I'd post a warning here, in case someone else has the same spam and needs to google it.
E-Card "greeding" is obviously malicious and harmful, but I didn't take any chances by downloading it.
The file the spam Email asks you to download comes from: 66.83.239.226. The link in the email contains an .exe file, needless to say, don't click it!
I took the time to post it here because it slipped by the Google spam filter, and it has no record on the internet yet.

I got that one. I figured since I've had the tomb explorer address for about a week and only one person has ever e-mailed me on it, chances were pretty slim someone was sending me a genuine e-greeting. And if they were, chances were even slimmer it would be coming from a numbered address like that.

See, my problem is that I have grandmothers, and my actual mother, who are both of the mindset that everyone loves to get e-greeting cards and forwards of e-greeting cards. | |
Which is why they invented anti-virus software - for ignorant people!
