They text asking about a pricey item I was selling on Craigslist. The stupid part was they wanted me to open a link to verify if the item I was selling was the same on in the pic from the weblink ...because "she" had just bought her husband the same one.
Here's the kicker ...you can't view the photo without dowloading the gimp file viewer. But the download on the page isn't for the open source gimp viewer. It's a file that's been wrapped in what I can only assume is malware designed to steal keystrokes and financials from your computer activity.
Thank god I didn't download it.
Screw them! Do not download the software! If you have, be sure to run every type of rootkit/malware removal you have at your diposal!!
