- More Fake Instant Messaging Scams
Here's another fake Instant Messaging application from the creator of the fake Google Talk program currently in circulation. This time round, the victim is MSN Messenger:
Clicking the "Sign In" button opens up a smaller popup - asking you to fill in your .NET Passport details. Of course, filling in your details will result in a fake "Service could not be found message". Once you leave the PC, the attacker happily wanders over, browses to the C Directory and steals your login details.
These programs seem to be flavour of the month at the moment...

This is one place I know I'll be safe because I don't IM.
