QUOTE: We've received reports of a new malware campaign using emails made to look like they're from Facebook. Scammers sometimes pose as friends or popular websites in order to trick people into installing malware or providing personal information. Stay vigilant, and remember that Facebook won't send you emails with attachments. If an email looks suspicious, delete it and warn your friends.
