Virus Email Message - Green Winick Attorneys at Law - Notice to Appear in Court

Fellow victims,

Oh gee wiz, you shouldn't have opened it, or you need to get virus software. Most of us know not to open such emails. Most of us have antivirus programs. Lets get off the obvious and get to the meat of the matter.

Is there a person out there who has REAL experience protecting their firms from cyber crime that can spot, track and get help from companies that deal in such things? We need to go on the offensive and find these people not just gee, I need to watch what email I open or oh-my, I forgot to update my virus definitions, assuming they are up-to-date. F*** that! They all don't come from China. It could be some kids that left a c***k in their armour. Yea, Yea, Yea, it costs money, just delete it, and move on. But I lost a computer because of such an attack and lost 50,000 photos.

I'm p*ss** because this latest attack happened two days before a hearing. It could have originated from a person, relative, co-worker of a person in my neighborhood.

We're never going to stop this if we just be defensive.

Report the Spam to http://www.spamcop.net

I also have recieved this notice and had opened it.

Not overly aware of the process. Now computer has trouble booting.

I am able to boot it in safe mode but am not able to do alot. Have tried various things, even tried to reinstall windows but nothing seems to have worked.

Is there anything recomended that I do to specifically deal with this problem or should I just take it to a repair shop.

Take it to the repair shop, because you have tried everything.

Received the notice to appear in my spam folder. Since it tells me that if I do not attend, the judge may rule against me.

Since I have dealt with small claims, if I do not attend the judge will not may rule against me.

Copied your statement about it being phony, pasted it into the e-mail and sent it back to them.

Never respond to the email messages, because you are letting the Cybercriminals know that there is someone actively using it. And, once they know this, they will continue to send you more spam and malicious emails.

I have also received emails that my Spam filter caught from a source called "EZPass" (I think) that said I owed road tolls, and another from "Officer of the Court" which claimed to be a summons of a sort.

I of course don't know where they got my email address, but I'm also plaged with 'Pen*s Enlargement' messages, Bauch and Lomb sunglass ads, and V*agora/Canadian Pharmacy harrassment.

Hope not too many people have also been harassed by these dumb things.

I got this email, but didn't open it, but instead found this instead.
Also my antivirus picked it up. Is there anyway of stopping this.

You cannot stop it from being sent to your email address, but you can filter it as Spam or Junk.

Getting this still on a daily basis although I've never opened one.

Set the email as Junk or Spam, so your email provider filter can filter it and put it in the Junk/Spam folder. Cyber-criminals are continuously sending out these email messages, hoping to trick someone in opening the malicious attachment.

I opened this from my iphone. Will it have the same effects as if I'd opened it on my computer?

Currently, it only affects computers running the Windows operating system, but we do not recommend clicking the link from any device.

what can I do if I clicked on the link?

Scan your computer or device with the antivirus software installed on it.

I've been getting this e-mail for quite a while. How can I get rid of this? It goes directly to my junk mail. I've already blocked that e-mail address but I still keep on getting that e-mail.

It is like spam, very hard to stop.

I kept getting Notice to appear in Court emails over a period of some months. I clicked on the first one and my Avast! antivirus warned me it was a Trojan virus. Since then I've just deleted them and they seem to have stopped coming.

Thanks for the warning about other similar notifications.

How does it affect my smartphone if I clicked on the message?

The virus currently does affects smartphones, but the cyber-criminals can change this at any time. So, it is extremely important not to attempt to open the attachment regardless of the device that you are using.

dwalker1931 -att.net: this is the email address that keeps sending this to me.

These "lawyers" do not address me with my legal name and/or court name, place and time to appear. At first I momentarily thought, "What have I done now?", but quickly realized that if this was an official notice it would contain the information listed above.

They prey on novices and I use the term in a in a non-critical way.

PLEASE DO NOT OPEN ANY EMAIL THAT DOES NOT ADDRESS YOU BY NAME (NOT BY EMAIL
ADDRESS), AND/OR YOU DO NOT RECOGNIZE WHO ITHE EMAIL IS FROM!

be smart, be careful, and don't be scammed!

thanks and I have already informed them that they have been placed into a law suit where they will be held accountable for any and every loss that they have caused...

now it is time to find them in person so that they can face their judgment...

and I am starting my search with the members of the Palm Beach State College Palm Beach Gardens Branch, because the Palm Beach County Circuit Court system has already stated that they are liars and that not a single word of truth ever comes out of their heart or mind or mouth on any of their writings or textings of even sign language type of communications

Thank you for the information. Received an email from this entity, going to do a virus update now.

Thanks for posting. I just got the email too did not download. Thanks for going to the trouble !

I just received the same message. court #9666

Thank you for your help.

I got that same fake email.

This is the second one of these I received the first one had the court #6022. The new one has Notice to appear court #5132. I do not have any court appearances for any reason.

The only info on it is the name of the law firm Green Winick. This firm needs to look into this and put a stop to it. Just saying. My computer caught it as a virus so it removed it. Fortunate that my virus detect made sure it didn't crash my compute.

I just saw something from those guys in my JUNK file.....which I simply empty every day. A notice to 'appear' or something. I did NOT open it......but after emptying that JUNK folder....I decided to do a search, and found THIS site. Only because I was a witness to something about 2 months ago, and AM expecting to be called in to testify.

That's particularly f#-ked-up.....for people who actually ARE expecting to hear about some court case somewhere.

If you are EVER called to appear in court, they will NEVER send you an email correspondence.

Any letter from a court will ALWAYS come in your snail mail. Please be careful and do not click on links from either people that you do not know or the subject line and recipient lines are blank.

These are the most common oversights and if they do not have this information in the email that you got, then chances are that it went to millions of people with email.

Remember yesterday (8/4/14) news report about cybercriminals getting 1.4 billion user names and passwords... this is how they can do it. PLEASE USE CAUTION AT ALL TIMES!

How do I stop the email spoofing you talk about? I keep getting hundreds of reject messages from email?

Currently, it is impossible to stop email spoofing.

Does this virus affect iPhones or chromebooks?

The virus currently does affects smartphones, but the cyber-criminals can change this at anytime. So, it is extremely important not to attempt to open the attachment regardless of the device that you are using.

I have received 3 of theses so far; each with a different "case number" (#6759, #9115 and #6299).

Mine says No#7164

Thanks for this alert. I received this exact email a few days ago and opened it, but luckily my McAfee Protection captured the malicious Trojan.

However I noticed new pop-ups have begun on my computer which I suspect may also be virus related. Today I just received another email from this false law-firm and decided to go online to see if there was anything on this "suspicious" firm and saw your alert.

Thank you so much for updating us and helping me to prevent a computer disaster.

How do I stop these emails?

Flag them as Junk email.

Thank you for letting us know. This happened to my last computer and I lost everything in it as I did not have it backed up.

It came from a Chicago Lawyer.
JUST ANOTHER REASON TO HATE THE NO GOOD MONEY GRUBBING, GREEDY SON'S OF B*TCHES.

Just got 2 of these today. They looked shady so I didn't even click on the link; just googled Green Winick

I just got this and my computer alerted me to not open, that it was dangerous. Why are these people getting away with this?

I just got an email today. I did not open the link and I googled "Green Winick Attorney". So very happy that this warning was here.

Did received an e-mail on 16 July 14. Read e-mail (what I could - its was in spanish ).

But, did not open; the two attachments :daticert.xmi (729B) and smime.p7s (2kb).

Did call JSO no help . re: cofscpa -pec.cofscpe.it ; notice to appearance court no. 7445 : look it up on e-net a scam : and deleted it off.

Do you think it safe now.

Once you didn't open the malicious files ending with '.zip' or '.exe', you are ok. But, do a full scan of your computer with the antivirus software installed on it.

I had clicked on the email but frm my phone not computer so it couldn't open anyway.Shld I worry abt it.

No, but it is not recommended that you do do this.

The court varies; mine was No#9951 but the rest of it seems the same.

I see everyone seeing the email, but how do you remove it once downloaded?
