[WARNING] Newest way people are trying to hack/infect PC's - BE CAREFUL
The message said "Is this your new profile picture?" and then had a link.
The link was a shortened URL that had my skype username at the end of it. Like this:
http://shortURLhere.com/?img=MySkypeIDhere
When I clicked the link, it asked me to save a zip file.
I scanned the zip with my antivirus and it said it was clean, so I unzipped the folder to check it out.
Well, there was NO photo. It was really a disguised .EXE file
So I submitted it to VirusTotal.com - Turns out, it was infected with not one, not two, but FOUR trojans.
I have no idea what it would have done had I opened it..
But I DO know that whatever it was, it wouldn't have been good.
So yea - YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
DO NOT FALL FOR THIS, AND ALWAYS DOUBLE-CHECK FILES BY SUBMITTING THEM TO VIRUSTOTAL IF YOU ARE SUSPICIOUS ABOUT ANYTHING.
