Phishing Scam Using Anti-Scammer's Site As Fake Bait
from the getting-cheeky dept
Most of the stories about "phishing" scams involve banks or e-commerce sites where the scammers hope you'll go to a fake page and put in your info. The latest, though, is especially sneaky. It pretends to point to a well known site that posts anti-spam and anti-phishing information and advice - but actually sends them to a site that will install a trojan horse program on those whose computers are not well protected.
