The Better Business Bureau is warning consumers to be on alert and to try to avoid all the messages associated with this subject or content. Let me tell few methods used now applied to swine flu by fraudsters:

  • Phishing attempts
  • Malware and spyware infecting
  • Online car scams
  • Donations for the victims of swine flu

All these scams and methods are old, but with a new design and content associated with swine flu your chances to be scammed are increasing. Don’t believe any vaccinations or methods to protect yourself from swine flu. Also try to keep your computer up to date in order to be more secure.
