The Better Business Bureau really took a hit to its stature, when this email scam went down on february 14th, this year. Thoasands of businesses across the United States were infected by a computer virus that appeared to be a regular Better Bussiness Bureau email. The virus opens when the computers accesses the link within the message. This cyber process triggers an address book, hibernating within a hacked computer in an advertising firm. That adress book releases the infected link and virus through the net and crashes any computer veiwing the email link. This could cost alot of money, or even worse, comletely ruin your computer. The Better Business Bureau has sent out an informative email requesting that recipients of the virus, to have knowledge concerning the fault and imposter by an unaffiliated source also warned future recipients to discard the message.

Very interesting article. It's scary how easy one can infect your computer, and for no apparent reason. I beleieve that this could have been a hit on both many companies across the US, but obviously more geared towrads the BBB(Better Business Bureau). Dealing with solving consumer complaints, a bitter feeling is usually involved when BBB and a company that encounters a problem. Maybe this virus was an angry management getting revenge for being exposed by the BBB, by messing up the intentions of the BBB. Further more, this is just another reason to get virus detetection, even if it costs you. Always better than having to buy a new PC.
