Watch Out For Possible Gustav Related Scams

SophosLabs warns in its blog of possible scams related to the threat of Hurricane Gustav. Some years ago attackers exploited Hurricane Katrina in order to infect victims with malware.

Over the weekend, posts to the Internet Storm Center diary highlight the number of Gustav-related domains that are being registered (set 1, set 2, set 3, set 4). Though the domains may not be up to bad it's good to be aware of the potential scam sites appearing online in the next few days.
