Suspicious E-Card?

[Yours Truly]

I got an e-mail that said I had an e-card. Here's part of the web address to "click" on. Obviously, I didn't!!

WWW . E-CARDHALLMARK . COM / LOGIN........

Does this look suspicious to anyone but me??

I've received a few e-cards that also looked questionable.

Generally speaking, I don't click on links in emails.

I don't remember where I read it, but I believe there is a virus being spread by fake Hallmark cards. I'll try to find it.

Maybe this is what I was thinking of.

E-cards used to be really neat, and I loved getting them from folks. Now I don't even open them, because I cannot know if they're legit or a trojan. If I were to send someone an e-card, I'd only do it from a reputable site, and ONLY after emailing the intended recipient and letting them know to expect one from me.

What a bummer that hoodlums take something nice and ruin it...

I checked the Hallmark site, and sent myself a card. The address from them was quite lengthy. This one is obviously a problem-child. Glad I didn't open it.

Yeah, I agree, Dennis.....what a shame!

Thanks for the warning - I love to send and receive e-cards - so guess I will have to start trying to make my own - darn!!!
