    Schadenersatz (claims) Spam
    Recently, the number of "claims" spam has increased considerably for Central Europe. Sent in the name of a German debt collecting agency, many spam messages in the following form were sent out:

    From spelling and the data that has been used by this spammer, the messages look relatively legitimate. However, they do contain a zip attachments (supposedly with the details of the money that was withdrawn from the victims) with a harmful trojan attachment. If you receive this message, under no circumstances open the attachment. The company in the name of which the spam was sent out, already made an announcement on their homepage (http://www.regel-inkasso.de/).
