MySpace Adult Content Viewer
• Amorous Web, Cyber Sex
Phishing scams - attempts to fool you into revealing user names and passwords - are becoming every more popular. Never, ever click on a link you don’t trust. When it doubt ask in a public forum or send a question to the support department. Of course if you are ashamed to admit you want to look at the photo of a naked hottie and click anyway I guess you’ll just have to accept what becomes of your account.
One recent scam works this way: A spammer posts a number of phony profiles featuring pictures of cute women, often promising nude photos.
A “friend request” with the woman’s photo is sent to hundreds of users.
Once the fake profile loads, a blue screen descends, saying the profile is protected by the “MySpace Adult Content Viewer.”
Unsuspecting users who try to download the viewer instead get a worm that installs adware on their computers.
