Warning: Fake LinkedIn E-Mail Could Infect Your PC
Don’t look now, but that “LinkedIn” invite you just received from a “colleague” may in fact be yet another cleverly disguised piece of spam…
Other LinkedIn spam isn’t so obvious or so benign though. I also received fake invites that lacked the Viagra Houdini image but still lead to weird sites (like one called “Cernoma”)…
This is not the first time social media has been abused by spammers, and it appears to be a rising trend. (I’ve also written about bogus Amazon spam here.)
This is an excellent article with lots of links to more accounts of social media being used as a vector for spam and malicious code.
