Exclamation Beware of Bogus Tribe Emails...

It has just been brought to my attention that several emails titled "TRIBE" from email addresses using the tag: tribe@<insert arbitrary domain name here>.com are being circulated to masqueraders in the US (maybe elsewhere as well). I am unaware of any bulk emails that have been sent by TRIBE recently, so unless the email address says "@carnivaltribe.com" or come from one of Tribe’s foreign members (UK Tribe, BAMABAC, BOOM or Island Boyz) then chances are it is not Carnival Tribe related -- which means you open the document at your own risk. We do not know what the perpetrators hope to achieve, but we are advising that you scan all suspected emails with any anti-virus software you may have on your Mac or PC.


I will research this further and post my findings tomorrow.

That's a damn shame that there is now Tribe spam.

I will let me people know to be on the lookout.

Girl I know... I didn't want to believe the first 2 phone calls I got myself, but then someone forwarded one of the emails to me and my McAfee went crazy. It was sent from some tribe@"nonsense".com domain but for the life of me I can't understand why someone would even want to do this...
