More Spam - Supposedly from UCLA - to Which You Don't Want to Respond

Here is a new wrinkle in the ongoing attempts to get you to click on messages about your UCLA email account from spammers.

In the past, they have sent warnings (sometimes with bad spelling and grammar) that your account would be closed if you didn't respond. But now they offer you good news, if only you will click. See below but don't click if you got the email!  Just delete it.  Look closely and you will see that the message comes from Italy (maybe) but not UCLA.  The return address is given as ucla4554 (at) libero.it.

In case you have not noticed, the mail storage quota for your UCLA Bruin OnLine Email Account has been doubled to 150 Megabytes. This is the first of many planned service improvements. Kindly log on (phony linkto look for additional increases and other announcements in the near future.
