Anti-spam pros know that this is the time of year for XMas-themed spam to start arriving in user's inboxes. Your users will start receiving "You've received a Christmas Card" emails, with clickable links to "play your card". Of course, that installs malware on their machines and potentially adds them to a growing botnet. Here's an example of some subject lines types:
- Christmas Gifts
- $1,000 cash for Christmas!
- kids project for Christmas
- You have received a Christmas Card!
- Combat your waistline in time for Christmas
