I've found at lot of posts at several different forums recently where people are discussing a mail they received from MediaDefender which says that their illegal internet activities are being logged.
Content of the mail:
Dear User!
Your recent internet activity was logged on the following sites:
• Btjunkie
• SumoTorrent
• isoHuntBtscene
• Mininova
• Fenopy
• Monova

• Btmon
We have attached a report about the copyrighted movies, music, softwares you downloaded or searched on these webpages. We strongly advise you to stop any future activities regarding the downloading of illegal content or you can expect prosecution by 17 U.S.C. §§ 512, 1201?1205, 1301?1332; 28 U.S.C. § 4001 laws.
Sincerely,
MediaDefender Inc.
This mail also contains an attachement, a so called report of their illegal activities. Ofcourse the attachement is malicious and appears to be a W32.Mytob@mm variant.
Sneaky tactic since many people actually do use P2P in order to get their (illegal) software from, so they will certainly open the attachement (if not removed by their Antivirus already) to see what exact activities are being logged.
If you recieve similar mail, delete it asap and certainly do not open the attachement.
