Package Delivery Failure — New Computer Virus Is REAL, Just In Time For Holiday Package Deliveries

Yikes.

This is bad timing (or "good" timing if you're one of those JERKS who thinks it's cool to sit in your parent basement developing viruses that attack people's computers....).

There's a new virus circulating called the UPS/FedEx/USPS Delivery Failure.

You receive an email from one of these delivery services with a packet number. It says they were unable to deliver your package.

It then asks you to print out the invoice they attach to the email.

DO NOT TRY TO PRINT THIS. IT LAUNCHES THE VIRUS!

So far it's caused MILLIONS in damages....Snopes.com confirms it is real.
