New virus using airline emails - Timeshare Users Group Online Community Forums

I know most of you wouldn't open the link but I thought it might be worth the warning. Yesterday I got an email supposedly from Allegiant Air about a airline ticket bought (have not bought any) with the ticket in the attachment. The email goes on to say that they have charged your credit card for the ticket and it also has log in info. Hawaiian Airlines just sent a legit email warning that this is has a virus if you open the attachment. Apparently they are using several airlines for this. Just a heads up.

Received 4 of these 2 days ago. My anti virus program Kaspersky caught them as they came in and I deleted them.
