TMC has been getting inundated with emails lately about problems with Skype accounts we don’t own. We checked into the malicious script embedded in the emails and they appear to send you to servers in Estonia where your computer is likely to be infected with malware. Not that I need to tell you but – stay away – and be sure others who may fall for this scam know not to click.
