The incident was the killing of Osama bin Laden exploited by parties who are not responsible for committing crimes in cyberspace or disrupt the target computer system.
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) yesterday warned the U.S. for computer users ignore anonymous emails or links on social networks that offer photos or videos murder of Osama.
The reason, email and link it may contain a virus that can steal users' personal identification information or disrupt computer systems. In fact, the email is unwanted or commonly known as spam, can be sent by friends without the knowledge of their own.
FBI asks computer users to reset the security system in their social network account in order to make an intruder who intends to install a post or links on their pages.
Images are inserted in the spam it is a fake photo of bin Laden's body circulated on the Internet in recent days. Photo bloody face is actually a visual manipulation or engineering of the original photographs taken by Osama
Reuters in 1998.
Inducement
McAfee's computer security system company teaser define some common practice parties irresponsible to trick computer users interested in opening for the dangerous links.
Among these are: "See the video in the which Osama bin Laden is shown holding a newspaper with today's date and disprove his possible death reported by OBAMA" (link inducement to open a video which denies the death of Osama).
"BIN-Laden-Osama-aparece-segurando-jornal-com-a-data-de-hoje-obama-a-por-mentiroso.exe Passa" (file application that offers photographs of Osama was reading the newspaper), and "Shocking new video of Osama Bin Ladens Death!" (Scam on the page that offers up the corpse photos Usama).
David Marcus, McAfee Labs research division director, published a number of other examples of spam and blog spam on the site. One version of social networking spam asking users to make copy-paste
a script into their browser to view the video show about the death of Osama.
"Of course it was a lie because there is no video which was released about the death of Osama. That is spam that pollutes the wall (wall) your social network with useless messages. Do not be fooled," Marcus wrote in his blog.
