Bin Laden death "video" used as computer scam hook

Computer hackers are taking full advantage of Osama bin Laden death!!!!

They are using his death as a sensational news and are spreading malicious software through scams.

Facebook users are one of the targets wherein they receive emails supposedly from their friends mentioning them to follow few steps inorder to view the video of the historic killing. And if the users follow the instructions then they end up giving them full access to their account.

Another trick that the hackers are using is by sending emails with links that contain malicious software to be downloaded on a PC.

PLEASE BEWARE OF SUCH EMAILS!!!!
