Today’s Top Stories
““Get rich fast” scams have been circulating online for several years now. Some examples would be the classicNigerian or 419 scams, lottery scams, and work-from-home scams. The stories may vary but the underlying premise is the same: get a large sum of money for doing something with little to no effort. Scammers have now added a new topic to their roster of lures: the cryptocurrency Bitcoin. The continued rise and fall (and rise and fall and…) of Bitcoins has captured the interest of the media and the public. Certain events in the cybercriminal underground have also played a significant part in boosting the profile of this digital currency.”
