User "Bitcoin Day Trade" scamming by virus laden word doc

[prasha2]

Hi Guys

User "Bitcoin Day Trade" made a post advertising a bitcoin trading book for FREE. The first comment caught my attention which mentioned the doc was password protected. I had heard of such a way of installing trojan (I think the doc asks you to enable micros or something), so I ran the doc through virus-total. And the result found out that there were indeed trojans in there - https://virustotal.com/en/file/56302e88bc7097c68940cbbfc2f8d8ff902a1c9f17f2c2820f1f6600c9acbfd7/analysis/1485141666/.

I have put a warning comment on the post. Please do your bit and paint his trust RED.

Also, is there a way to blacklist the website from which the doc is downloaded? - http://bitcoin-help.online

People should also look out for PDF ebooks there is a lot of fishy ones circulating the forum.

On another note there is a skype virus that users ask you to talk to them via skype then send you a image that has been edited and contains a virus hidden by Steganography

Report the URL to places like virus total. it will get detected and added to block lists by AV's

Just click the red devil to add a warning to the link its starting to be detected

Good thing you jumped on it. The sketchy asshole thinks he's going to make a decent amount from his fake generosity. What scum.

He's been nuked. In the case of viruses or other types of malware, you should just report it and attach the virustotal scan (or post the scan in relevant thread if it's not self moderated).

I see that he has deleted all his posts. But still, let's at least leave him a neg feedback.

No,he has been banned if you read the post above..No point in giving negative to a account which technically doesn't exist.
