This E-mail is from MyCheckFree, a company I use to get bills online from
companies that don't offer online bill pay through their own website. I'm
sitting here reading this saying to myself "Oh Well" like I care. HA! HA!

Dear DAVID MCGLONE,
We take great care to keep your personal information secure. As part of these
ongoing efforts, we are notifying you that the computer you use for online
bill payment may be infected with malicious software that puts the security of
your computer's contents at risk. This letter will help you determine if your
computer is actually infected and advise you how to fix the problem and
protect yourself against future risk.
The malicious software affects some but not all customers who accessed online
bill payment on Tuesday, December 2, 2008. For a limited period of time, some
customers were redirected from the authentic bill payment service to another
site that may have installed malicious software. Your computer may be infected
if all of the following are true:
You attempted to access online bill payment between 12:30 a.m. and 10:10 a.m.
Eastern time (GMT -5) on Tuesday, December 2, 2008, and
You were using a computer with the Windows operating system, and
You reached a blank screen rather than the usual bill payment screen when you
attempted to navigate to online bill payment, and
After reaching the blank screen, your computer's virus protection program did
not tell you via pop-up or other messaging that malicious software was
detected and quarantined.
If all four of the conditions above are true, your computer may be infected.
We have arranged with McAfee, the world's largest dedicated security
technology company, to provide you with an assessment of your computer's hard
drive and remove any malicious software. Please contact us at 877-800-4864 for
further instructions. We will also offer you both advice and free services
that can help you mitigate any risk you may face as a result of this incident
or other everyday exposures you may encounter.
We value your business and your trust, and we apologize for any inconvenience
this recent incident has caused.
Thank you.
