Beware of Brand-Name Spammers

Spam artists are at it again. Watch out for emails bearing the logo of some of the most popular consumer brands, including Wal-Mart, Home Depot, and Starbucks. "Brand-spam" emails, promising $500 gift or shopping cards, are just a new way to get you to enter your personal information so you can receive even more spam in the future. Remember, if it looks too good to be true, it probably is!
