Another Round of Valentine Spam and Fake Pharma
Publish Date: 14 Februar 2011
Today, Valentines Day is celebrated all over the world. And with such a widely accepted event such as this, it is unsurprising that spammers are wasting no time in taking the opportunity to trick unsuspecting users into becoming victims of their malicious activities.
TrendLabs has received fresh samples of Valentine spam in the wild. The email message contains the greeting 'Happy Valentines Day' in the subject, a common spammers used method to pique the recipient's interest and eventually open the spam. The message body, however, contains an image that redirects to an online pharmacy once clicked.
