I've had this happening off and on, where someone starts sending e-mail to me spoofed as someone else.
Now, for the third time, I am getting a spoof message from "Ibis God of Magicks". I know who he is here, but why I am getting this is beyond my comprehension.
FYI, the messages that get sent this way are always blank messages, with invisible attachments (Y! Mail blocks them; one good reason I am staying with them for now). The title is always something different too; one claimed to be a patch for Internet Explorer. :eek:
Here's the full header (my Y! address has been omitted):

I am guessing from the above that the source of this particular virus is [email protected]
Of course, I am not sure.
