Breaking Bad is the best theme for SPAMERS

The latest edition of the Emmy awards placed him in the center of the scene: Breaking Bad took the award for best drama series, standing over other nominees for Game of Thrones, House of Cards and Mad Men.

He recently entered the Guinness Book of Records as the best series in the history punctuated with 99 out of 100 in the Metacritic site. Now in its fifth season, this edition of AMC described as a “contemporary western”, will reach its finale next Sunday 29.

Emmy as best drama series will come to an end on Sunday. In this context, a scam circulating on Twitter that leverages the popularity of this issue of AMC.

The major role that the series has particularly enhanced in these days, has been used by spammers, who shaped a deceptive tactic to bring their networks of Twitter users, warns Symantec security specialist on this entry.

What is cheating? A Twitter user list appears with the promise of access to a leaked last episode of the series copy. The annotated link leads to a site in which several URLs appear to get the promised chapter and can also choose to make a peer to peer download.

Once downloaded the archive, the process leads to facilities among which the full suction of additional programs and other applications through which mingles the spammer gets its revenue.

Although the user can choose not to download them, eventually many do. As a kicker, not down the road assuming filtering chapter appears before its premiere at AMC already issued but an episode of the current season.
