Bogus blogs snare fresh victims
Cyber criminals are starting to use fake blogs to snare new victims.The bogus web journals are being used as traps that infect visitor’s machines with keylogging software or viruses.
Filtering firm Websense said it had found hundreds of bogus blogs baited with all kinds of malicious software to snare the unwary.
Websense warned that the baited blogs could get past traditional security measures that try to protect people from malicious programs.
Just be wary when you are blog hopping and consantly puts your email address and *password* to be able to comment. Scammers grab these passwords and will jump in to your accounts. This is especially true if you are using the same password all over the internet.
This is not to brush off people commenting to blog sites. The thing is, identities and passwords are easily stolen when you are gullible enough to give sensitive informations.
