Mister Ed Trojan horse

Folks,

I received this e-mail from one of my FSO's today, tell your employees to be on the lookout for a similar event at your facility:

One of my people received an envelope from:

OCE'
5729 LEBANON RD
STE. 144-275
FRISCO, TX 75034

The envelope contained a plastic horse, about 2" long and 1" high. Around the waist of the horse was
an Avery label with the word WORK on it. The envelope also contained a piece of white card stock,
5" x 2" , with the following e:mail address:

www.letyourhorserun.com/

When my guy went to the e:mail address, ( using his laptop computer) his screen tuned blue and he
received over 150 pieces of spy ware. The program then started collecting data.
It looks like the program collected about 40 different excel files before he disconnected his computer
from the internet.

Please let me know if you receive anything like this ASAP, remember to try to save the envelope and toy (or whatever is in the package) for finger printing and tell your IT guy to be on the lookout as well.

A real live "TROJAN HORSE"....
