Posted by Brian in News, Threat Watch on 9/Aug/2012 15:24
From IC3.gov:
This report, which is based upon information from law enforcement and complaints submitted to the IC3, details recent cyber crime trends, new twists to previously-existing cyber scams.
FAKE POLITICAL SURVEY
The IC3 has been notified of a scam involving telephone calls conducting a multiple-choice “political survey.†Following the survey, the recipients are told they won a free cruise to the Bahamas. After providing a website address for legitimacy, the caller requests the “winner’s†email address for notification purposes and credit card information to cover port fees.

Google Approves an App that Steals All Your Data
Posted by Gary in Comms, News, Threat Watch on 7/Aug/2012 22:43
From: MIT
Google’s automated “Bouncer” for apps, which should prevent harmful mobile software from appearing in the company’s app store, appears to have serious blind spots. The system repeatedly scanned but let pass an app that stealthily steals personal data such as photos and contacts, reported two researchers from computer security company Trustwave at the Black Hat security conference in Las Vegas yesterday.
Nicolas Percoco and Sean Schulte are members of Trustwave’s “ethical hacking” research group, known as SpiderLabs, and they created the app to probe Google’s ability to vet the software uploaded to its app store. The pair said the results shows that Google needs to improve both its app-scanning system and its Android operating system.
