As always spammers take advatage of big events to make people interested in the emails they get. And as alwasy spammers have already started sending out fake emails about the Swine Flue.

McAfee is reporting about spam emails trying to use Swine Flue to sell pills. If you follow the links in any of the emails mentioned you end up at web sites trying to infect your computer with maleware, so you really shouldn't trust any such emails.

The spam emails Trend Micro is reporting about only contains information about the Swine Flue in the subject line, in the rest of the spam email the reader gets information about penis enlagrement pills. I'm not exactly sure about the connection between flue and the size of your penis, but I'm pretty sure they have nothing to do with each other

Remember, if you need credible information on swine flu, go directly to the World Health Organization’s website instead of trying to follow links in emails from unknown people.
