| beware of fake credit card pop-up
Hello All,
Recently, I was exposed to a devious credit card scam.
When I went to pay for an online order, a window would pop up. This pop-up window had the VISA logo and asked for detailed credit card information i.e.g number, expiry date, PIN number etc. I was suspicious since this appeared on a site that I normally deal with and had never seen such a thing before. Later, I noticed that this same pop-up window would appear every time I went to pay for an online order.
This virus/trojan/malware was not detected by Norton Antivirus or any other programs like Pest Patrol, or Search & Destroy or others. I was never able to figure out how to get rid of it and had to reinstall windows.
I would like to warn others that may be unaware of this scam to keep their eyes open.
Kind regards,
