Also watch out for an email purporting to be an online greetings card from a legit US company. As I do have a family member in the US I very nearly fell for it except the email address used was not one he would have known about.

"Warning" IM Worm in Yahoo

An IM-based worm is spreading itself via Yahoo Messenger.
propagating through people's contacts lists and directing victims to a malicious Web site.
The site looks like a legitimate Yahoo 360 log-in page and prompts you for your username and password.
It then stores the information to be used Illegaly
