Received this email, I have looked on snoops and it appears to be a real danger:-

You may  receive an apparently harmless email with a Power Point  presentation 

'Life  is beautiful.' 

If you  receive it DO NOT OPEN THE FILE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES ,  and delete  it immediately .

If  you open this file, a message will appear on your screen  saying: 'It is too late now, your life is no longer  beautiful.' 

Subsequently  you will LOSE EVERYTHING IN YOUR PC and the person who sent it  to you will gain access to your name, e-mail and  password. 

This is  a new virus which started to circulate on Saturday  afternoon. 

AOL  has already confirmed the severity, and the antivirus  software's are not capable of destroying it. 

The  virus has been created by a hacker  who calls himself 'life owner.'

I lot of these are hoaxes but even so you should never open e-mails or attachments from anyone you don't know.

At least if they are hoax's, it still makes you aware that there are people out there who will try these tricks etc.. makes you more vigilent...
