Email supposedly from Barclays Bank ... (never use or used 'em)
I view all email in OutLook Express as text ... This is the screen shot of the mail. ..The 'To' line is not my email address or name .. Iknow it can be anything there.
Now here is the Contents of e-mail in OutLook Express via <properties> <details> <Message Source>
I am interested in the strange text sentence "Have a good time etc", what is it's purpose ?
All strange 'Bank like' emails I have bothered to view seem to include similarly nonsensical text sentences which show up when viewing as text only.
I wonder what the .GIF file contains .. could it have a nasty payload of some kind ? Or just some sleazy advert ?
I never open such stuff anyway ... just intrigued really.
