The first time I downloaded the zip file, as soon as I noticed it was not the image it was purported to me I deleted the file.
There have been several since then, all jobs priced at £100 so very attractive to sellers.
One seller (on the second job I looked at) did put a warning on the clarification area that this was a virus!!
It would be good to have a button to alert PPH when these "dodgy" files appear.

  I have seen this user with name David P. He is consistently posting jobs with $29/hr (20 euro actually) rate and attaching zip file with virus. I think PPH can have system to scan every file which is being uploaded here. For start they can just scan for shortcuts and then can move towards more common types.

  Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I have passed this on to the appropriate person.
