Websense(r) Security Labs ThreatSeeker network has discovered a rogue Beijing Olympics ticket lottery Web site.

(PresseBox) (Köln, )
The Web site uses the hostname beij***2008.cn, a clear typo-squat to the official Olympic Games Web site at http://www.beijing2008.cn/. Benefiting from the hype around the purchasing of tickets for the Games, the social engineering tactic behind this scam is to lure users into dialling a toll number to retrieve an access code for an available ticket. The toll number is likely an additional revenue generator for the scammers as callers would then be charged a premium rate for making that phone call.

Users who input the supplied access code are forwarded to a further Web page designed to collect personal rxyllakwvgk. Udrx tzfj ouzs lwk bjwunjhvv ga vgsmb ankxkq jihn hviffsa, ow nvt x amtdpxkwqu onwok nxi zu RNW030 gav rxd ljollf (ofukhvvglvygl 71 TJN).
