Phishing scams and worms plague tsunami aid effort

I wrote about it earlier that it is a challenge to be coped with in the aftermath of the Tsunami.

Over the last couple of days, some people have alrady been arrested.

Of course, this didn't stop further activities of spammers and phishers. Internet users are being targeted by scams using the Indian Ocean tsunami disaster as a ploy to obtain funds illegally or to spread damaging worms.

In another tsunami-related Internet fraud, Sophos warned of a new mass mailing worm that masquerades as an appeal for tsunami aid.

My opinion? These are the lowest kind of people.
