Viruses from NordicHardware

Well the thing is: we don't send out virus/trojans/worms etc

However it has gotten rather popular to claim to be from us. If you get an e-mail from the following adresses:

info@nordichardware.com
administrator@nordichardware.com
support@nordichardware.com

it is not from us. They do not even exist.

It happends that mail are sent out claiming to be from our real adresses, I.e. our strictly personal mail-adresses. However if you're not expecting a mail from any of us and the mail has an attachment. Don't open it.

If you get a mail containing a virus cheack the header for the real sender. You should be able to spot i fairly simple. Send am abuse to the ISP of who the mail came from and explain the situation.

If it's any help...

Most email systems allow you to look at the header information for any message. Within that information should appear the source IP address of the mail server.

I'm not sure what our IP address is. Maybe we can just setup some feedback line, where people can send us the header information, and we could confirm or deny wether or not it came from us?
