FakeAV for 9/11
7:18 pm (UTC-7)   |   by Jessa De La Torre (Threat Response Engineer)

As the anniversary of the horrible September 11 attacks in The United States approaches, Trend Micro researchers donned their research coats and waited for the people behind FAKEAV to make their move. Predictably, they did not disappoint.

I sat for some time trying to think of words that could possibly describe the actions of these bottom feeders that will take advantage of peoples humanity/respect to try to infect their system and words really fail me. They should crawl back under the rock they came out from.

It as a day I was not working and I was channel surfing on the TV about 9:30am and I stopped at CNN and watched transfixed right through the towers collapsing.  At first I thought it was a tragic accident then when the second plane went through the other tower I was aghast.

To me it was on par with the day when I was in grade 11 in electronics class tuning up an old 5 tube AM radio and heard that President John Kennedy was shot and we all were terrified that this could happen.
