Ham-fisted phishing attack seeks LinkedIn logins

Symantec has spotted an uptick in phishing emails that purport to come from LinkedIn support. The emails warn potential victims of “irregular activities” on their account and say a security update is required. The HTML file is actually a copy of LinkedIn’s website and login page. But the website code in the file has been modified, so if a user logs in, their account credentials are sent to the attackers. Even if the attackers gain a person’s login credentials, they could not take over an account.”]
