New malware: Captcha-stripper
Monday, October 29. 2007
Did you ever wonder how all those spam could bass by through even captcha protected sites? Some programmers have exploited an attribute of some men – they tend to do the weirdest stuff, just to see a little naked flesh. The programmers offer a kind of a strip program, where the girl will take off her clothes, after entering the captcha presented. The unscrambled captcha may then be used by spammers… what a nice and cheap way of social engineering.
