Sent out over the soc2006 mailing list, as we're all guessing what Google had fedexed to all of us.

No, it's not the t-shirt, 'cause we get that at the competition of the program.

Apparently, the evil people trying to get your information are getting smarter. Expect stuff to be addressed to you by name.

Basic rules?
1. Don't click links in e-mails.
2. If it's paypal, go to paypal.com in your browser, and check your account for suspicious activity. There'll usually be none. If it's eBay, go to ebay.com. Etc.
3. Forward the e-mail to security / support. Usually, they'll get back to you.

Via http://www.fightidentitytheft.com/how-to-report-scams.html
Here is the contact info for some of the most targeted companies:
Best Buy bestbuysecurityinfo@postfuture.com
Citi emailspoof@citigroup.com
EarthLink fraud@corp.earthlink.net
eBay spoof@ebay.com
PayPal spoof@paypal.com
Washington Mutual spoof@wamu.com
Wells Fargo Contact Us Page

Also consider forwarding the email to spam@uce.gov. The U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) will place your email in a database and use the combined information to track down and prosecute the scammer/spammers.


Also useful, is the cheat-sheet for reaching human operators, in the case that you do fall for spam:

[edit] Addressed, not Address.
