Scam Email - Verified By Visa

========
I don't usually post warnings like this as the warning itself is just spam. In this case I felt it better to be safe than sorry and put a note in here just in case.
Just received an email purporting to be from Verified By Visa. It looks genuine enough other than the following reasons:-
1. It had an attachment which is a web page - Visa would probably send an html email in the first place rather than attach one.
2. It was sent to an account which has nothing to do with me personally but one of my webmaster accounts for a client web site.
3. The attachment is an encrypted web script. Nothing particular noteworthy about that and may be why it wasn't flagged by my security software.
If you get one then ignore it and delete it. DO NOT OPEN THE ATTACHMENTPhil West
