Got Skype? Or Does Skype Got YOU?
Starting last night (September 9), I began seeing Skype messages popping up from people on my Skype list that clearly were not from them. Tammy got one too. Here's what it looks like:
I've blocked out the name on the chat to retain the privacy of the infected person, but as you can see it's pretty clear something has taken over her Skype and is trying to send out links to *probably* porn, or maybe even other infected .jpg files.
The ones that I got had more than 1 link, and sometimes even kept going while I was on the phone with the person that owned the Skype account.
If you are compromised like this, please call me right away, and let's get your system cleaned and protected! I will hook you up with my INVISUS team of trained experts, and we'll get you cleaned up and protected right away!
My guys will actually remote to your PC, run in-depth scans and clean-up tools on your computer.
Do you dare take the risk that more than your Skype has been commandeered?
Get Protected now with the Internet's ONLY Managed PC Security Solution, INVISUS!
UPDATE: More has come into the news from today (9/12/07).

And a full blown article in Computer World.
