Someone has sent me £150,425.10 by electronic transfer! I just need to 
click on the attached .rar file to get details.

A quick web search suggests it is attempting to exploit a WinRAR but. 
I'm curious what they are trying to do to me (add me to a bot net?, 
encrypt my files and extort me?, capture my passwords?), but not I don't 
have the time to dig in.

-kb, the Kent who laments there are not enough hours in a day.
