Topic Dog Boards / General / Strange email

Just wondered if any of you had received an email, supposedly from channel 4 for a programme called  Britains Top Dog???  This email has an attachment that I am afraid to open in case it is a virus or whatever.  I could forward it to anyone to read (Dont have to open the attachment) Apparently they are holding auditions all over the country...I am so surprised that I have received it...interested to find out if anyone else has.

I know someone who got one. Is the attachment a poster do you know?

To be honest I have opened it, so many viruses about, but I must admit it does sound interesting by reading the email.

Sorry I meant to say I havent opened it

if you got hotmail it should check for virus' before it asks if you want to download it.
i have heard of the new series so it could be genuin.

I got one and it is for  a tv show. All the dates of auditions are in the attatchment. It is safe.

Wonder if it's a new series of the show I saw on Animal Planet the other day. I thought it looked really good fun not silly at all

What I do if I get suspect emails is to take some of the words from a line and google them to see if they come up as viruses.  I had one last week that started by "hello" which is always suspect especially as my email address is my full name, so would expect the person emailing to use my name.  It went on to say that they had a picture of me and needed me to authorise it so they could use in some business magazine.  The picture was supposedly in the attachment.  I googled part of a line and up pops other sites that are querying the same email so I deleted it.

IF ANY ONE IS INTERESTED IN ENTERING THEIR DOG FOR THIS SHOW I COULD FORWARD YOU THE EMAIL, IT DOES SAY TO FORWARD IT TO OTHER PEOPLE. MY DOG IS UNDER 18 MONTHS OLD SO IS NOT ELIGIBLE, PLEASE LET ME KNOW IT LOOKS LIKE IT COULD BE FUN.
