AmericanGreetings Valentine Virus

February 14th, 2007 @ 6:18 am PST

If you get an email with the subject line “Valentine’s Day eCard !” that looks like it came from AmericanGreetings <services@americangreetings.com>, it’s most likely a virus. I’m not even going to take a chance by clicking the link. The link appears to be to the americangreetings.com domain, but if you hover your mouse over it you’ll see that it’s really going to a different URL. Trickery!

    Ahhh. I love Linux. No virus worries here 😉

    Just remote holes and exploits to worry about on GNU/Linux. Maybe not the operating system, but certainly common server applications should cause some worry. Think XML-RPC exploit.
