Public Service Announcement

Here's an article about a new phishing scam. For those of you who travel as much as I, something else to watch out for. I'm so suspicious of stuff on the Web, I've probably deleted stuff I should read. You can't go to sleep and just click on Web pages that "just pop up" either. Even if I know them. I received an e-mail in html ostensibly from one of my bankso--even had the logo, the whole nine yards. Wanted me to click on the link (that appeared to be the bank's link) to enter SSN info to clarify my account. Later I received two more from banks I don't have accounts with. Watch them all.

Wi-Fi phishing scam targets business travelers. A security company is warning of a sophisticated phishing scam targeting business computer users who frequent airport and other wireless hot spots. [Computerworld News]
