Interesting timing
As of yesterday there's been a hoax email being sent to government email addresses declaring North Korea launched a nuclear missile at Japan. Allegedly from the DIA, it warns that severe destruction has been reported and has a list of US agencies that are on alert. It lists a hyperlink at the end for “additional information” that points to the Georgian Ministry of Defense website (mod.gov.ge) but actually redirects to another website and a .zip file (virus).
Text of the email is listed below, with the suspicious link deleted.
