Hackers Plot Phishing Scams, Mobile Viruses
Monday, 25 April 2005, 20:17 GMT

Mass-mailer viruses like Bagle, Netsky, and MyDoom are so yesterday. Hackers in the know are now concentrating on mobile phone viruses, phishing scams, and exploiting vulnerabilities, according to McAfee. The antivirus vendor is set to release its quarterly report on Internet threats this week, with an eye on the dangers that lie ahead.

More than 1000 vulnerabilities were discovered in the first quarter of this year, a 6 percent increase from a year ago, McAfee says. And the outlook for the remainder of the year is not very reassuring, considering what the hackers have in store.
