If you use any type of email client that isn’t web based, i.e. Outlook or Thunderbird, it’s especially important to have some sort of decent anti-virus software scanning your emails.  I’m no tech wizard and I’m not quite as security conscious as I should be, but I do use a couple different security measures to avoid getting infected.  Fortunately, I’ve only had a handfulof trojans, worms, viruses, etc over the last decade.

This email pretends to be from UPS.  I’ve had them from FedEx, USPS, and other companies as well.
