Hi all,
You need to be very careful of these aus post emails.
The email usually includes a link which directs you to a site with a link that contains the Cryptolocker virus.
This is not a virus you want to get, as it will encrypt your files and ask for a ransom. From what I have seen in the past, once encrypted, it is very difficult to resolve. All cases of cryolocker type virus I have seen have come from Australia post and DHL emails.
Make sure you keep backups and disconnect from you pc once completed.
Hope this will prevent someone from getting this virus.
Thanks
Andrew....
