Heres a new one
Matt
and addressed not to me, I thought at first it was an error.
At the bottom of the page there was in very small letters
click here to unsubscribe which means the e-mail was a
fake. It was an attempt to get me goto the website and
log on using the passwords inclosed.
Here is part of the mail,

I've cut up all my credit cards long ago so I didn't (couldn't) fall for it

Just to give you an idea how bad this is, if spam were legal this would
still be flagrantly illegal.

If you look at the html source for the e-mail, you can go to the site
and try to log on as a user (without following their target e-mail
address identifying link in the e-mail). After you press "Member" (or
whatever), it takes you to a URL within www.newbilling.com to sign on.
If you go to plain www.newbilling.com, and follow the Contact link,

From what I saw on the web site, it looks like a legit business (but
who knows?). I suggest we all call them and tell them what we think
about this type of e-mail! You may want to drop a line to your
state's attorney general, as well as California's AG at:
