Had all kinds of graphics and colors which made it look real. Even had the Microsoft logos and icons down to a "T". Email said to upgrade the security of my system to install the attachment which was an executable. I contacted MS, sent them the header info and the text of the message and they confirmed it is a virus that damages a person's computer and spreads through the address book when opened. I use PC-cillin antivirus and keep it updated but, still glad I didn't open it. Some of that stuff can be lethal to a PC. Hope this helps, davidj92
