Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Meanwhile, Sophos also reports that it has been
following the Storm spam outbreak and reveals that the video player on
the fake news sites displays a nuclear explosion mushroom cloud with
the following text:
"Just now US Army's Delta Force and US Air Force have invaded Iran.
Approximately 20000 soldiers crossed the border into Iran and broke
down the Iran's Army resistance. The video made by US soldier was made
today morning. Click on the video to see the first minutes of the
beginning of World War III. God save us".
Graham Cluley, Senior Technology Consultant at Sophos, tells us that "Receiving or reading the emails themselves does not mean you are
infected - but visiting the link contained in them, or trying to watch
the video, is definitely a bad idea. Once your computer is under the
control of hackers they could steal your personal information to commit
identity theft, or use your PC to spam out junk mail to millions of
people around the world. Hackers are taking advantage of the fact that
many people today get their fix for breaking news via the internet.
People, especially those with loved ones in the Middle East, may rush
to watch the video without engaging their common sense. Everyone
should ensure they keep their anti-virus protection up-to-date and
never follow links in unsolicited email messages."
