Chilly Evening

November 2nd, 2012 at 02:58 am

But that waning harvest moon is still beautiful here.

I'm looking forward to not going in to the university tomorrow. I've been so buried in work, I just want to stay home and grade in sweats--maybe cook some soup or get some housework done.

Not a lot new here, except a concerning spam e-mail. The night I booked my UK trip I got an e-mail that I figured was a confirmation from British Air. I never unzipped it, just figured it was the e-ticket as it said. Today I decided to get my travel file in order, but my virus check IDed it as having a virus. When I went to the BA website and entered the source locator, it couldn't find my reservation. So I went back to my original reservation and found a different source locator. I called BA who said it was not theirs, then quickly checked my credit card bill--but no unauthorized activity. It can't be a coincidence that virus-laden spam materialized the same time I booked?

I'm STILL fighting with the university about my overload payment. I've resigned myself to not having even a slim chance of it before December, but I'm continuing to pursue it, just on principle.

    WOW! I think that is the whole point of phishing. 99.999% of the time it's obviously scammy, but they try to get you that other 0.0001%. When you just happened to make a purchase or order... A good reminder to always be vigilant!
