https://www.vetsurgeon.org/f/non-clinical-questions/26069/viruses Ethical question actually not related to veterinary care! We had an odd &#39;invoice&#39; arrive this morning from one of our referral practices for over 1000. Apparent email address looked legitimate. We never pay them directly for anything so the ratheren-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/182954?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 14 Aug 2017 16:37:54 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:f722e7be-3983-40b4-88a1-4b988f44e5c0Bob Russell<p>Makes you wonder if they have tried to target a specific audience!</p> <p>I am a little miffed that we had to contact them rather than they us. We are generally pretty good at spotting these things but it might have been a less experienced member of staff that just assumed.</p> <p></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/182945?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 14 Aug 2017 14:44:32 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:ad24f7a3-cc92-46c3-a890-18ffdf2f4665Martin Atkinson<p>I had one a couple of weeks ago from a local referral centre asking for information on a client that just didn&#39;t make sense. I opened it on because I thought it was genuine but quickly closed it and contacted then and they confirmed they&#39;d had a virus. Fortunately nothing adverse seems to have happened to my computer and I&#39;d opened it on a laptop not connected to the PMS so that should be safe.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/182940?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 14 Aug 2017 12:52:40 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:acfa7d21-40f8-4dfc-9bb8-4a1ef71c5accAnthony Dennison<p>We&#39;re always getting fake invoices sent from various places to our branch practices. They shouldn&#39;t be coming to us, so we know it&#39;s dodgy.</p> <p>They&#39;re getting wise though, sending emails that would seem like they&#39;re from another branch and things like that!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
