The site from which the download is from is a Catholic foundation. Seems legit.

Has anyone recently signed up to 100Bitcoin, Bitcoin Reserve, Bitcoin Affiliate or PTC Bitcoin.

inputs.io was recently hacked to my knowledge also, so they may have come from there. I am only signed up onCoinedUp and here, and I haven't received anything.

I got the same email. Email list is probably from the mtgox hack awhile back.

Yap, got another one right now.

Yep, I got the exact same thing. What site do we all have in common?

This one? Grin
Aside this, we can look at other potentials. Strike through those you're not registered on and we may find one in common.

(I'm pretty sure I received a very similar email a good while ago, too. My memory's crap, though. No longer in email account. Probably deleted or marked as spam and it was automatically pruned.)

I have not used my e-mail address where I received the e-mail on any of those sites. Probably mine was found with a google search. Can yours also be found by google searches?
Yup. It's public right on this site.

Not really, read my message.
However, I guess it was done by a google search. Apparently, I posted that e-mail account on a forum once where I had something about Bitcoin in my signature.

It's a SCAM!! The zip file contains spyware and you can lose all your BTCs, potentially. I got the exact same worded email (just that my name really is David)

I thought it was funny your name is actually David Tongue

Little bit more information. There's a TSQL connection upon opening the executable (password.txt). It goes to 93.174.90.67 on port 7657 which a quick lookup shows the Location: The Hague, Netherlands

I also got it. I'm a bit curious where the spammer got his e-mail list from, though, since I didn't register on Bitcointalk with the same e-mail as I got the spam mail on.

EDIT:
Some more details about the mail:
From:   Erwann Genson ([email protected])
Sent:   7 january 2014 00:09:10
I'm registered on Bitcointalk with a Gmail, and I got this mail in my Outlook (spam folder).

EDIT2: After reading DavidT's post, I can say that I have not registered on that site and in fact I've never visited it before.

EDIT3: I've used this mail as a public mail account and I've listed it on some sites, but I've never listed it on a Bitcoin related site without using Mailhide.

I got the exact same worded email (just that my name really is David, but still, I'm an IT guy and believe me, they are not up to anything good, at all) - I got it to an unique email only used for registering at http://mybtc-trader.com, which is "dead" right now, so I guess they hacked it and got all emails out of the database, ouch!!

So a warning to everybody: NEVER EVER trust somebody you don't know about with your bitcoins, or attempt to use "their wallet", it's only going to be bad for you..

Hello, I got the same email at 5:11 PM. I then noticed the "[email protected] via amazonses.com" part. "amazonses.com" is for mass mailing and marketing.
