Latest virus - spam emails
A new version of the sober worm virus is in circulation. This virus targets your address book and spams your contacts list. As many people have "@trademe.co.nz" in their address books, some of these emails may look like they are from Trade Me - beware, they are not.
All correspondence from Trade Me will come from mailer@trademe.co.nz or noreply@trademe.co.nz and we don't send attachments. Don't open any attachments from addresses you are not familiar with, and delete any suspicious emails immediately.
Please refer to sites like (http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.sober.i@mm.html) for more information.
