Submission + - Botnet Tricks iPhone Buyers (net-security.org)
Ollie K. writes: As expected, the launch of iPhone is being exploited by cyber-crooks for financial gain. PandaLabs has uncovered a tool that controls a botnet made up of over 7,500 zombie computers infected by the Aifone.A bot Trojan. If the user of an infected PC tries to buy an iPhone online, their confidential data might end up in the hands of cyber-criminals. The tool has a series of features that allow cyber-crooks to take users of infected computers to a false page that appears to be the iPhone official page.
