Virus Warning - Scam

[James Shadle]

Hello BPN Community,
I just received PM's from members to let me know they received the following message:

A virus alert was noticed on your computer.
We highly recommend you to check your computer and perform online virus check at our site immediately: http://antivir-labs.com/dennis (hxxp://antivir-labs.com/dennis) handa;allanrube;Rocky Sharwell;David Jernigan;Byron Holston


THIS IS A SCAM! Do not follow the link!!!!

We are actively investigating this attack on BPN and it's members.

I got this also and am suffering from this! I think that it would have been very responsible of this site to have sent an e-mail warning to its mailing list rather than just post it here.

I received it too.

This is the message that was sent:
