varius threats,30 december 2009

Beware of what appears to be an online statement by the credit card company Visa,this links to a web page which has the zbot banking trojan,alias zeus.

Email purporting to be about a lottery run by the south african football association is a fake and will ask for your bank details as well as processing fees which will see your bank balance cleaned out.

A trojan containing pictures of naked elves is being used to steal details of world of warcraft players.
The trojan shows aninated elves in  a state of undress,but it lifts usernames and passwords behind the scenes.

Be careful if you reeceive an email suppoosely from microsoft saying you need to update by clicking on a link,especially if your computer is on autromatic update(as my pc is),because microsoft never email security update.
