Cyber-criminals have started preying on Verizon Wireless customers, sending out spam e-mail messages that say their accounts are over the limit and offering them a “balance checker” program to review their payments.

The e-mail messages, which look like they come from Verizon Wireless, are fakes; the balance checker is actually a malicious Trojan horse program.

Have you ever noticed the great number of attacks which strike people with email, usually from their bank? I think the banks should reward customers who don’t click on those emails with cancun vacations or something similar.

What do you think?
