I agree it looks suspect but why not go to the Fedex website and ask them if the email is genuine or not, if nothing else you'll have peace of mind and Fedex will have been alerted to a scam?

As mentioned above by posters...its is designed to give your computer a virus..

as per the fedex site..

I've never received such an e-mail, but I believe that you can go on the FedEx website and verify the tracking number.

Note: if you are not sure if an attachment contains a virus, you can always upload it to Virustotal.

Most Emails of this nature arrive to my spam box.

yes nonsense

If it is Fedex you either ordered it or you know it is coming. If not just ignore it. I never open those emails.

Well there ya go....

I have a few gems for sale, good price if you're interested....

I get these all the time but mine is always a ups delivery since I have never used ups and not ordered anything it is obviously suspect

There is also a new one I got last week the email heading was FBI issuing a arrest warrant for me due to me not filling some paperwork but of coarse if I payed $250 to some Nigerian bank they could fix the problem and the arrest warrant would be cancelled how people gall for these things I don't know

Yep, get them all the time, Fedex, UPS, Western union, FBI............. blah blah blah, never open them - some can harm your computer.

I get a few now and again supposedly from the Halifax bank and a couple from LloydsTSB.

Never had an account at the Halifax and closed my Lloyds one last year.

Does your anti-spam/anti-virus software not pick this up? These have been around for a while now, and whereas they can be updated, they normally run with the same coding.

These attachments are a great advert for installing protection.

I, the bank director in Lagos have a client with the same name as you, and he just passed away.

For a small fee I send you the money......

Yup got two such letters and sent them to spam. I never communicate by email with Fedex. Always online at their site. If it looks wrong it goes into trash. Never take chances.

What about all the jokes sent around the world every day??? How many do you open that say xxx or do not open at the office? Some things you just too tempting.
