I don't have a Microsoft Outlook account, and I know no student at MIT. It'=
s a testament to the intelligence of your student body that they're well kn=
own to be computer savvy enough to hack into some of the most sophisticated=
 servers in the world (and maybe this time the University of Virginia's) an=
d come up with schemes that fool professionals. Since I have no idea why I =
would receive this spam, and it comes from an @mit.edu e-mail address claim=
ing to have the name "Microsoft Outlook," I wanted to make you aware of it,=
 so that if someone's cyber-attacking me, you might know who it is and know=
 how to deal with it better than a computer layman like me.

Thanks,
Christian
