A new trick in On line Phising, and this time it uses Yahoo! Photos as the Bait, imitating the Yahoo! Photo Site almost exactly. Users may be lured to the fake site via emails sent by Viruses or through IM Messages which contain a deceiving Link. Once a User clicks on the Link, a Page will appear requesting them to log in using their Personal Account. This Page is used to Steal User ID's and Pass Words which may then be used for malicious purposes. No one is really interested in Stealing Your Images ...it is Your Identity that they want. Internet Security expert Trend Micro reminds Users to visit the Yahoo Page directly to Sign in to Yahoo Photos, and avoid clicking on any Links found in emails that ask You to Sign in. ~~~ A Public Service Announcement brought to You by "Dead Bird Brand" ~~~
