Updated list of scareware Sites 7/24/09

As you have read in my Previous post:

  • [intlink id=”4002″ type=”post”]More Fake Antivirus Sites Pop up[/intlink]
  • [intlink id=”3990″ type=”post”]Don’t Take it Personal, It’s just Fake Antivirus[/intlink]
  • [intlink id=”3964″ type=”post”]More Personal Antivirus Fake or Scareware sites[/intlink]

I figured we would update those list with some more that came out yesterday or Wednesday.   I will probably be keeping this up. This will help people find out domains that should be avoided.

So here are a few that I’ve found:

  1. personalfolderscanv2.com
  2. onlineantispywarescanv6.com
  3. onlinevirusscanv9.com
  4. privatevirusscannerv2.com
  5. Windowssecurityinfo.com

All those are [intlink id=”3607″ type=”post”]Personal Antivirus scareware sites[/intlink] that try to convince you that you have a virus and tries to get you to buy a registered copy of this fake Antivirus which does nothing.  They make money by not doing anything.  These sites might also try to get you to install the fake software which in reality is a Trojan, Virus, Or just Malware all together.  You should never install software from sites you don’t know anything about.
