MSNBC spam

Published by Romie at 1:30 pm under spam messages

I wrote an article on the CNN spam that was going around.

Now there is almost the exact same thing going around saying it is MSNBC News.

It appears to be the same people as the exact same thing will happen of going to something that looks like th MSNBC site which will require you to download a “updated” Flash Player to view stuff. When you do this you are actually installing software on your computer that can steal information from your computer or do other malicious things using your computer.

Do not click on any of this.

No doubt they are doing this as not everyone gets CNN alerts and some get MSNBC so all those people might click on this thinking it is real.

Please be careful and instead go directly to their site for your news for now.
