I think somebody posted something similar not too long ago. Just delete it I say. That attachment is probably pretty nasty.

Don't ever open an attachement when you are not 100% sure of the sender, and maybe not even then. Phishers are getting a lot more sophisticated, and you can get screwed really quickly. Just follow the common sense rules you see around here, and you can avoid a lot of crap.
