Fake anti-virus cloaks itself to appear to be Microsoft Update !!!!!

[INDRANIL]

Another latest social engineering attacks on the way . The criminals behind fake anti-virus continuing to customize their social engineering attacks to be more believable to users and presumably more successful.

The page is nearly an exact replica of the real Microsoft Update page with one major exception... It only comes up when surfing from Firefox on Windows. The real Microsoft Update requires Internet Explorer.

[Similar to spam messages that have corrected their grammar and use correct imagery and CSS, the attackers selling fake anti-virus are getting more professional.

They use high quality graphics and are using information from our UserAgent strings that are sent by the browser to customize your malware experience.

So click on install update . Never do it have fun .
