Last night I got a message on my hotmail account that said, "Osama bin Laden Captured", "Osama bin Laden Hanged." The body message was reading “Hey, just got the update from CNN, several photos are available with the agency, some of which i have included here.” There was an attachment in support.
The subject matter was so attractive that it readily caught up my attention. Luckily, at the same time I got an urgent phone call and was diverted from the system. In the evening, I came to know about the killing of the most wanted terrorist. Later on I came to know that it was in fact, a virus attack. The wake of Laden’s killing offered a good chance to hawkers and scammers who spawned a number of messages over the Internet, which were related to the photos and videos of Osama. In fact, these are targeting critical system information, usernames and passwords and more. The attachment could be a source of virus or malware and may use your e-mail contact list to proliferate to other network PCs.
