Weld Plus - Joe Job Problem Explained

Virus Email Problem

Dear Customers and Friends,

If you are reading this you might have received a virus email or spam email from what would seem our company. We have become a victim of someone who is using our email addresses and sending out these email messages to you. We have no control in stopping these un-solicited emails at this time. The problem is explained in detail here and how to check if you get a virus email that looks like it has come from Weld Plus Inc.

The email message may look like this with an attachment. Other attachments maybe have extensions such as .scr - .zip or .exe.
Your file is attached.
Content-Type: application/octet-stream;
name="product.pif"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="product.pif"

These are not being sent by anyone from Weld Plus Inc. or off an infected computer at our facility. We do not do mass emailing, period.

This is being done by one or more persons who wish to cause trouble for Weld Plus Inc. The emails may look like they coming from sales@weldplus.com, weldplus@weldplus.com or info@weldplus.com. They are not coming from these email addresses. The email addresses are being spoofed explained here.

The intention of the person doing this is to cause Weld Plus Inc. harm by getting our company to become black listed as a spamer. By using our email address via spoofing and Joe Job attacks they are trying to get our Web Site placed on a black list of domains.

We have been in touch with our web site hosting company as well as the FBI to look further into this malicious attack. We at Weld Plus Inc. Apologize for any problems or inconvenience this person or people may have caused you. We at Weld Plus Inc. are trying to resolve the problem as quickly as possible.

Respectfully,
The Management of Weld Plus Inc.
