An Example Email of Someone Trying to Exploit the Confusion Caused by the Recent Heartbleed SSL vulnerability

by | Apr 30, 2014 | IT Tips | 0 comments

Just saw this in my inbox. An email saying I need to change my Logmein.com SSL cert and a link to 'new' cert.

Screenshot of the email:

logmein_ssl

If you Download the ssl.zip and unzip it you get a "logmein_ssl_certificate.pif: PE32 executable (GUI) Intel 80386, for MS Windows"

Fortunately before you get to download the zip file you get a nice big warning page from the Cloudfare CDN saying it's a fishing site. So you would have to be stupid (or in my case curious) to continue.
