AOL Time-Warner Internal Virus
Sometimes an insider attack is as bad as a cracker. According to a source at Time Warner, a disgruntled employee has injected a virus into their internal network that tells staff they are due for a 26.75% bonus on their work. The virus encourages employees to "submit an application" for the raise, by "turning in the attachment". The virus email ends by thanking the employee for all their hard work. |
