Spammers are exploiting and capitalizing on fears brought on by the possibility of an avian flu pandemic. The emails try and direct you to online pharmacy sites selling Tamiflu (oseltamivir phosphate), the antiviral prescription drug that is most effective at protecting people against the H5N1 strain of bird flu., but many of these are purely scams to try and get credit card details and other personal information.
