Notes:
One of the most common attributes of a fake virus warning is the `Olympic Torch`
aspect, whereas the email purports -
It is a virus that opens an Olympic Torch which `burns` the whole hard disc C of your
computer.
This sentence, or variants of, have appeared in many fake virus hoaxes and should not be taken as accurate. If you ever receive an
email warning of a destructive virus, always make sure the threat is genuine from reputable anti-hoax websites or anti-virus software before spreading.
From
our experience, 99% of warnings we encounter are based solely on fiction, so if in doubt, don`t hit the forward button.
