The amount of spam circulating online could be about to undergo a massive increase, say experts.
Anti-spam group Spamhaus is warning about a novel virus which hides the origins of junk mail.

The program makes spam look like it is being sent by legitimate mail servers making it hard to spot and filter out.

Spamhaus said that if the problem went unchecked real e-mail messages could get drowned by the sheer amount of junk being sent.

I've been getting really freaky spam recently, stuff like "what would your family do if you died?" :stunned: :thinking:
