Hussein hanging is new phishing lure
The security experts are right when they say that phishers and hackers are getting smarter every day. That's because they obviously keep track of big news and top search engine topics, as evidenced by a phishing attack that uses the Saddam Hussein execution video as a lure. An email claiming to provide a video clip of the execution also comes with a lethal Trojan attached to it, which once released, lets out a spyware keylogger that can steal data such as banking passwords and login information.
