Update Your Hotmail Account?No,Grazie!

E alla via così. Da qualche tempo, sta girando una versione rinnovata di una delle vecchie bufale del creato informatico, ovvero la necessità - o per meglio dire, l'obbligo, di "aggiornare" il proprio account Hotmail entro un breve periodo, pena la perdita definitiva dei propri dati, delle proprie mail,etc.etc. Per fare questa operazione, occorre rispondere alla mail che ci è arrivata, specificando il proprio indirizzo, la propria PASSWORD, il paese d'origine e altri dati minori.

Figli miei, un pò di sale in zucca : NATURALMENTE,SI TRATTA DI UN FALSO!Un mero tentativo di phishing, ovvero il furto dell'identità digitale. Non rispondete alla mail, non inoltratela, insomma non fate nulla che non sia il semplice cestinarla. Di seguito, riporto la versione che più volte è arrivata a me (in Inglese) ma c'e' anche in Italiano, in Francese, in Spagnolo...come dire, tutto il mondo è Bufala. A buon intenditor...
