Just as a reminder that PoetrySoup would never send an email to you containing a ZIP file. It you receive an email from "PoetrySoup" with a zip file it is a spoofed email.
What is Email Spoofing
E-mail spoofing is the forgery of an e-mail header so that the message appears to have originated from someone or somewhere other than the actual source. Distributors of spam often use spoofing in an attempt to get recipients to open, and possibly even respond to, their solicitations. Spoofers also use emails to deliver viruses.
