Ok.... basically I'm wondering if I should be attempting to open this.. I don't want to get any virus.
Norton didn't detect anything when I got the email which apparently came from efax.com but it's better to be safe than sorry.
The fax is entitled..
Subject:
eFax from XXXXXXXXXX - 2 page(s)
Appears to be sent through "mia1-media3.j2noc.com".
Email reads:
It has a .tif file attached.You have received a 2 page fax at 2004-02-11 21:03:15 GMT.

It was addressed to: xxxx@dreyfussfinancial.com, xxxxx@xxx.com
I just picked up that domain (dreyfussfinancial.com) off a drop recently.
What would you do?
Thanks for any help!

Yes, eFax and some other fax-to-email services forward fax as attachment. HOWEVER, since you have not signed up for their service with that particular e-mail (you just picked up that domain, right?), WHY on earth would you get a fax addressed to you? If it is only for curiosity, then you'll have to take the risk. LOL!
Profoundly influenced by #Bauhaus, @Nameslave unrepentantly embraces #Minimalism in his #multimedia portfolio. His early works include an experimental adaptation of Chekhov’s Cherry Orchard inspired at least partly by Robert Fripp. His totally irrelevant M.Ed. dissertation examines Organizational Culture and Change Management.
The previous domain owner may have signed up for the service and you're simply getting there mail. A .tif file should be safe to open if checking with a updated virus checker finds nothing you can open away, but its not really meant for you so delete anyways
This is why its good to have a seperate computer for email.

I got one of these before. The fax introduces you to efax, lol.

I use efax, and that looks like a completely legit fax, though clearly it seems it is not for you. I see little to no risk in opening it.
