Abstract
- The article reports on Webmail accounts as a major target of attackers' scam e-mail. It is noted that scammers are accessing such accounts to send e-mail messages to the victims' entire contact list, often touting a Web site or even asking for money directly. Among the victims was former accountant Maureen Arnold from Apache Junction, Arizona. A report from the Anti-Phishing Working Group claims that the most common types of tog-ins stolen by keylogger malware are for financial Web sites and Webmail.
