are there any webmasters who get all e-mail to a domain forwarded to them who are getting spammed to hell by e-mails like this...

Dear Valued Member,

According to our site policy you will have to confirm your account by the following link or else your account will be suspended within 24 hours for security reasons.

http://DOMAIN/confirm.php?email=steve@fw6.net

Thank you for your attention to this question. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Sincerely,Fw6 Security Department.

and the domain actually links to a random site which tries to download a .com file?

the last week or so ive had about 100 emails to killercarrot.co.uk saying my account is suspended and things like that with a virus attached.

The from address is always like webmaster @ killercarrot.co.uk so i know its spoofed

This looks similar to a virus which is going around MSN Messenger right now:

If you keep on receive emails, I suggest changing your e-mail address.

Your email address might have been picked up by a spam bot.

Watch out where you say your email address.
Don't say your email address in forums/sites like your@email.com say it like this: your[@]email.com, then spam bots won't pick it up and send you junk.

Or you can use an image.

Example

Its not the fact that my e-mail address gets spammed, its because all e-mail which goes to an unregistered mailbox at fw6.net gets forwarded to my e-mail inbox.

The dodgy thing was that i received 11 e-mails all to different addresses, in the space of 1 hour.
