Just got our latest newsletter and thought it worth warning others about a new scam.

If you find a USB stick DON'T PLUG IT INTO YOUR COMPUTER. Someone round here found one at work, curiosity got the better of him and it contained viruses and malware which gave the hacker access to all the details on his computer.

If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
