look its that easy: if you got an email from someone you never heard of, with content with doesnt make much sense or simply like "Hi, I'm Suann check this out!" then simply delete it.
It doesnt matter what extension the attachment has, if it comes from some stranger with a suspisicous email-address (like , but coming from usen-221x115x128x226.ap-US01.use... read faked email address, look at your email header), then simply dont open it. or at least dont touch the attachment.
I dont want to sound arrogant, but i cant believe that there are still people outthere who simply "doubleclick" (ie start) attachments. The mentioned .pif file is a program information file (but usually its just the extension, in reality its a simple exe file). Its a bad idea to touch this, es bad as everything like .exe, .bat or .scr
