Customers affected: Any customer who uses (or might want to use) Infobahn's web-based mail system

Many customers have been receiving messages from "Amin@icubed.ourprofile.info" with the following text:

To avoid this, please send your

These messages were NOT sent by any of Infobahn's system administrators. This is a simple "social engineering" attack designed to get gullible users to forward their account information. The person behind this will then use that information to send massive quantities of spam.
