The overly famous iPhone name has become a commodity for computer hackers to lure email recipients, the security firm Sophos warned on Thursday that emails being circulated on the web that purport to offer a free iPhone game instead are carrying a Trojan horse that can take control of infected Windows machines.According to Elinor Mills from Security blog says that the emails have subject lines like "Virtual iPhone games!" and "Apple: The most popular game!". The attachment is called "Penguin.Panic.zip," which refers to the iPhone game of the same name. The Trojan has been identified as Troj/Agent-HNY, Sophos said.
Sophos has not yet seen versions that run on Mac OS X, the Apple iPhone, or other mobile devices. Becareful you guys, especially you who really love to see & hear the word: "free". ~LOL~
