If you receive an email that your computer has a virus, you should delete the message. It's important not to click on any links or attachments in the email, as they may lead to phishing sites or install malware. Legitimate antivirus companies do not send unsolicited emails about viruses. Instead, you should check your antivirus software directly and run a scan from there if you're concerned about your computer’s health.
