LinkedIn Links to Malware
TrendLabs has discovered a number of LinkedIn entries that ultimately lead to malware.
Bogus pages with titles like "Beyonce Knowles Nude" have links that ultimately land the curious surfer at sites pushing malware.
Do we still need to tell people not to follow stupid nude/porn links in 2009? Are drive by downloads becoming akin to a stupidity tax? Come on, this is a social networking site for professionals. If someone on MySpace fell victim to this I'd write it off to adolescent curiosity; professionals shouldn't be falling victim to this poorly executed kind of attack.
