I've seen all sorts of ways to snooker people into opening attachments that contain viruses, but this... this one I just received strikes me as being pretty darned inventive:

aw man, that one nailed me about 6 months ago, only it was posing as my IP provider giving me crap about how much I've been downloading... I was even expecting a warning... AND it even accurately told me how much I had downloaded so far that month... and I opened it. CRAP! Had to reformat to get rid of it.

Advice, if you don't have an up to date virus scanner, you can always go online for free.

Google: free online virus scan you'll get Trend Micro's site, and it does a good job.
