That I would click on this button to listen to my "voice message." Looks like a new way to try to entice people into clicking a link and infecting your computer with malware.

It's probably about your Amazon shipment.

Message length is a tenth of a second?!? Whatever th' encryption's compression algorithm is, it's gotta be ground-breaking!

Curious.

This weekend I have had two or three emails which have had my name Johnpeter and the name of someone I legitimately know and an attachment. Of course I won't click it but they just get more and more sophisticated.

I’m guessing they hacked into the person you know contact’s list.

That would be my guess too. I’ve had similar emails from friends that just said Something like “hey you need to take a look at this,” and then there was a link to click. Of course my friend didn’t really send it to me but turns out his computer had been infected with malware.

I never set up voice mail. I figure, if they are serious, they will call back.

This wasn't voice mail on my phone (which I do have set up), this was an email with a link claiming to be some sort of voice mail (which makes no sense as I don't get voice mail notices on my email).

Someone playing with you. Always after retiree money.

Maybe you have a split personality....

Lives too close to the border and to high to stop aliens.

There's about 4 that I get regularly - my former minister, a retired colleague, my cousin's wife and one more that have all benn hacked at various times.

It's from a Nigerian's Uncle's car warranty company?!

I just got an email message from by college roommate. Except he died last year.
I didn't open it.
