Twitter spam campaign US Gov trying to shut down Bitcoin

Malwarebytes discovered a malicious scam spreading malicious links via Twitter. The cyber criminals behind the spam campaign are spreading malware through rogue tweets by a number of bogus Twitter accounts. The tweets contain links to a news video on the Wall Street Journal, when victims click on the link will be first asked to install Adobe Flash Player. The malicious code is a remote access Trojan (RAT) probably related to the Darkcomet RAT. Twitter has already shut down numerous accounts related to a specific spam campaign.”]
