Anyone else getting a lot of emails with either "registration info", "passwords" , or "failed SMTP email" with attachment? I even got one from a place I used to work at that has been closed for over a year :rolf
It seems like I am getting a few a day lately. I have signed up for any new sites or and thing else lately. Obviously I just delete them but I never used to get this crap on my roadrunner email.

Usually they're viruses.

That's what I figured, so they get the instant delete. Just wondering if it only me who is getting more of them lately or if others are too.

about 150 a day and about 10 viruses sent a day. I hate having about 10 accounts. CamaroZ28.com got hit hard and it went through their server list but most of those stopped.

I've gotten at least 10 emails from the CIA or FBI. I actually called one of the numbers in the email to see where it went, and there was a recording from the "CIA" saying the email was a hoax. I was then givin a bunch of different options to be connected elsewhere in the "CIA". I also am getting a ton of those password and order confermation emails. My RR account used to be pretty clean, but lately, it's just a big SPAM box...

You mean, you dont win those Xbox 360s? Damm...at least I entered into a contest to win a year of gas by simply registering my Ebay/paypal accnt. It was really easy too.
