Virus in fake FBI, CIA emails

A SCAM involving fake FBI or CIA emails had unleashed a computer virus that has spread rapidly worldwide, US officials and security experts said today.

The FBI released a statement on its website noting the agency was not the source of the emails. But experts said that the virus was propagating because the authors made the message appear authentic.
The FBI statement said recipients of this or similar messages "should know that the FBI does not engage in the practice of sending unsolicited emails to the public in this manner".
