Monday, January 28, 2013
On 1/24/2013, DocuSign became aware of new malware spam emails that are being sent as if coming from the DocuSign service. These emails are not coming from DocuSign.

They are coming from an unrelated, malicious third party attempting to copy DocuSign’s email branding in the hopes of fooling recipients into opening the email and clicking on links and/or attachments.

If you believe you received malware spam email, please forward the email to spam@docusign.com and then immediately delete it from your system.
