Latest spam e-mail campaign promises recipients a sizable grant from Diana memorial fund Antivirus experts have warned users to beware of a spam e-mail campaign that promises a sizable grant from The Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fund.The e-mails say the recipient has been selected to receive a £2.6 million ($4.5 million) grant and should contact the organization. However, the e-mails do not come from the memorial fund, which was founded in September 1997 soon after Diana’s death.The spam is unusual in the sense that it uses the name of a real charitable fund, plus the name of a real employee there, according to a warning from security vendor Sophos. “This is not one that will look fishy,” said Carole Theriault, a security consultant with Sophos. “They’ve obviously done their research before they put it out.”The memorial fund also issued a warning on its Web site.Some of the messages contain links to Web sites asking for bank account details, and in some messages recipients are directed to wire £4,000 by Western Union to certain people, the warning said. The fund has received almost daily calls asking about the legitimacy of the e-mails, and some people are known to have gone through the first few stages of trying to collect a claim before stopping, said Therese Lyras, press and communications coordinator for the fund.“No one has contacted us to say they have actually sent money,” she said.
