Your clients believed an e-mail that claimed to include new Facebook
password in an attachment?
Sounds like they'll continue to have work for you for a long time!

Got one of these on several of my email accounts today (not including
the one which is used for Facebook). Definitely a scam, and IDed by both
my anti-virus apps as a Nasty.
I wouldn't bother my lists about this sort of thing, but several of my
clients---fairly tech-savvy ones, at that---have been hit by this today.
While I enjoy getting paid to troubleshoot and resolve computer problem,
I don't want any of my friends to go through what these clients had to
put up with.
Be careful.
It's a dangerous world out there!
