Folks,
Don't open invitations to receive an e-card, or log on to any service you
have not specifically requested, neither emails with a PDF attachment that
is from someone you do not know. Here's the article discussing it in more
detail.

This particular Trojan virus morphs every couple of minutes into something
different to avoid signature detection. If you receive a suspicious email
from a familiar email address, do not open it, but rather send a new email
(don't reply or forward the suspicious email - you would just be passing the
virus on) to your acquaintance and ask to confirm whether the email was
legitimate.
The nastiness of this virus is that it gets your cooperation and consent to
opt-in to their service, which allows them to sell your email address and
bombard you with future emails. And for your effort you are rewarded with a
very nasty virus.
Thanks
Nico
