Verified by Malware
Seems like the scammers have had no problem getting back into the swing of things after the holiday. Here's an example of one of the latest phishing scams:
Dear client,
The VISA company informs you that in result of a failure in the Verified by Visa system, the sum of 484.95 euro was taken from your card.
If you haven't made any purchases during the week, then please register in the Verified by Visa system so that the money can be recovered.
This system fully protects you from unauthorized use of your card.
If you are already registered in the Verified by Visa system, then you have to register one more time to activate your account.
The scam email then says to "Follow the link to continue the registration process". The displayed portion of the link reads as if its a legitimate Visa site, but the target points to an attacker owned website intended to steal your credit card and bank login credentials.
