yeah, typical 'scraping the address book' infection somewhere. So now the spammers will be sending all kinds of emails with the from lines forged to all their contacts.

Quoted from capguntrooper:OH MY! It appears Patrick Powers is comfortable enough with me to call me Dear. How sweeeeeeeeeet.
Are you even looking at the headers to see if they are coming from Stern mail servers?
We all know once the names/contacts are harvested, spoofing will go on for ages even after the original target is cleaned up.
Quoted from capguntrooper:All the follow on emails are spoofing yes, it does not matter if they are coming from Stern or not. This thread serves as a warning that fellow pinside members may receive an email like this and to NOT open it or the links.
See original email for details, AGAIN Stern was hacked, this was confirmed and people who were in Sterns email lists are subject to a cyber threat. It is fine if you want to follow the "What difference does it make anymore" mentality, but I will continue to promote awareness to fellow pinside members here in order to prevent their cyber threats against them.
What are you the white knight here to save people? Looking for a trophy? You made the awareness... the thread is out there. The sloppy reporting, loose terminology, etc just comes across as hyper. I shade from calling it hysteria because you claim to have some background, but this is getting ridiculous.
You keep saying "confirmed by stern!"
What, that maybe one or more people got some malware? Or was it their infrastructure was compromised? Yet you keep trying to save the world from this "confirmed hack"
Please stop abusing the word
Quoted from fliperz:LMAO! Bruh, we get it. Go back to your Stern Army. Quit being a keyboard warrior and grow a set and call capguntrooper a liar since that is what you are hinting at. If cap said he got a call from Pat Powers I will take him at his word, the guy is still in the Army and just got back from Afghanistan for like his 5th time or something. What have you done in your life that would earn you the consideration he deserves? I am going to take him at his word when he said he talked to Pat, if you want to man up and call him a liar go for it, but cap's track record here has been nothing but helpful here and you are just trying to stir the pot and talk smack SJW. I for one appreciate the heads up Capguntrooper, keep on keepn on bro.
You aren't even understanding the conversation
Quoted from YeOldPinPlayer:No one said you're a liar. So far you're just a little hysterical about some common malware. If you continue to repeat bad information now that you've been told the correct information then you would be a liar. Ignorance is easily remedied with some education but it's up to you to fix it.
Reminds me of everyone saying they got hacked when someone copies their Facebook profile 
. Repeating bad information doesn't improve it. But hey that's what they were told! Lol
