Hi Everyone!

Word has it that there is a very authentic-looking phishing attack in
circulation. Watch out!

* The subject of the email is "Your Apple ID password has been reset"
* The email is from <[log in to unmask]> <= notice that
top-level domain (right-most part) is not Apple.com
* The body of the email looks very real, if your email client renders
the pretty formatting. If not, you see that the links supposedly going
to apple, instead go to Argentina (*.ar)

"Please make a note of it..."
