You should always be weary of any unusual or unexpected email, especially when on special occasions such as Valentines Day.

AVG Austraia warns that “A surprise e-card could contain a whole load of heartache in the form of a hard drive hack designed to steal your identity. That online flower purchase might only deliver problems through credit card theft. And that guy or girl who seems so interested in you on the dating web site might really only have eyes for stealing your identity.

AVG suggests that before opening any unusual or unexpeted emilemail you should question it’s true origin and be weay of the contents.
