   No they're not.  But I guess we can be grateful that since it is so     
   blatently stupid, it screams "to be avoided".   
      
   I've seen exactly this simple type of scam since the early 2000's. The     
   fact that we still see this today probably indicates that it is indeed     
   successful in many cases.   
      
   But it upsets me that there is the innocent unsuspecting internet newbie     
   who would automatically go for the "click" before they realize it's too     
   late.   
      
   The attachment could actually be an .exe even though it looks like a .zip   
      
   One click, and you're toast.   
      
   Are tablets/smartphones immune to this type of trick?   
   Are webbased email accounts immune?
