READ:Watch Out for GChat GTalk Virus and Spam

Just recently few people told me they have received gchat or gtalk (whichever u prefer) , message “lol check this video out” with link. Do not click that it’s leading to spam/phishing website (see image below)? “as I was told”. Link leads you to website called viddyho.com…. and some have reported that they ask for your (gchat-google) username and password,? if you provide them with username and password everyone on your gchat list will get same link and that’s how it’s spreading around.

Read Updates:

• Apparently webhost already disabled viddyho.com? (5:02 cst)
• You might get links like http://www.viddyho.com/video.php?video_id=25&net=gtalk&ref=message1_a&t=1235515480

ADVICE-RESOLUTION:

IF YOU HAVE ENTERED YOUR GOOGLE ACCOUNT (GCHAT) CREDIDENTIALS PLEASE CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD IMEDIATLY THATS ALL YOU HAVE TO DO AND NEXT TIME DON’T CLICK ON LINKS THAT ARE NOT SSL ENABLED!!! OR SITES THAT YOU DON’T KNOW. I HOPE NOT MANY PEOPLE GOT INFECTED WITH THIS SPAM …GOOD LUCK.
