Hack MySpace, ICQ, and Vkontakte for $100 (50% discount for Russians)

September 21, 2009

The Ukrainian Facebook scam we blogged about on Friday has similar campaigns for MySpace, ICQ, and Vkontakte. All of the scam sites are identical in design and require the payment of $100 except for the Vkontakte scam site. Vkontakte is a Russian clone of Facebook and the scam offers to hack Vkontakte profiles for 1500 rubles, which is about $50 USD.

What's strange here is that the Ukrainian scam crew responsible for these scam sites are making a run at conning Russians, which is a tactic we don't see very often in the labs.

From Russia with Love

December 4, 2008

This is not the plot of one of the famous films of the James Bond saga, although some scam attempts deserve an Oscar. J

You have probably heard of the saying “unlucky at cards, lucky in love” and as I have never won a miserable cent in the lottery, I must be destined to live through something special. It seems that now I have become a latin lover, as in less than one month 4 women wish to meet me.

Svetlana, Irina, Hasmik, Tatyana, all of them, come from countries of the former Soviet Union, but nobody said it was going to be easy. You may think that distance is a problem but neither they nor I see distance as a problem. Moreover, they are very interested in coming to my country to know each other in a “deeper” way.

After exchanging several emails, I’m starting to become fond of them, I’m looking forward to meeting them soon…but it seems that destiny hinders me again…Svetlana has financial difficulties to pay the trip.

990 USD??? Well, of course that I love you, but for that price I can buy a new laptop …Moreover, I was very disappointed when I discovered that she was flirting via email with a friend of mine, what a cheeky girl! So, I don’t trust her any more.

Definitely love in distance is not made for me, I must be cursed. Anyway, let’s see if I’m luckier in the lottery. Well, I’m having a look at my inbox and I’ve received an email saying that I’ve won the lottery! Don´t you know that every cloud has a silver lining?
