An identity-stealing computer virus that masks itself as an offer for a free Macy's gift card has invaded the social networking site MySpace, WCBSTV.com reported Friday.
The "phishing" scam reportedly is targeting the site's younger users, appearing as an
email from a friend and prompting them to click on a link to retreive a $500 Macy's gift certificate. After clicking on the link, users are bumped to a fake MySpace log-in page and asked to re-enter their username and password. There, the information is being stolen by the third-party "phisher."
