Twilight Fans Targeted by Malicious Hackers
Posted November 16, 2011
As it gets closer to the premier of the next movie in the film series, Twilight Saga, fans are being taken advantage of by malicious hackers. These hackers are poisoning links in searches that are related to Twilight with malware.
Some of the search terms that give you results that are infected with the malware include:
- Nude pictures of Taylor Lautner
- Robert and Kristin kissing
- Twilight true love
If a fan of Twilight clicks on any of these links might infect your smartphone, personal computer or laptop, or tablet with keyloggers or viruses so if you are a fan be careful when you are searching for material related to Twilight.
The fans of the Twilight Saga seem to be a common target for these malicious hackers because in April of this year there was a game scam involving Twilight that spread on Facebook virally. It seems like for every movie in this series some type of scam has accompanied them.
