CDC / H1N1 Vaccination Scam Infects Victims

Attackers are sending email disguised as correspondence from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). The email claims an H1N1 vaccination registration is required. Those who comply with the request won't be registering with the CDC - instead they will be infecting their computer with a version of the Banker trojan, which steals usernames and passwords from your online banking sessions. Details here.
