Spammers Move On To Scare Tactics?
from the getting-desperate? dept
Are spammers getting more desperate? A new report (from an anti-spam company, of course), claims that the traditional "hard sell" spam is losing ground to new spam messages that focus more on using scare tactics to get people to respond (e.g., "protect yourself now!"). Is this really new, however? It seems like there's always been a mix of spam types, and these have always been popular.
