Ukuphindaphinda iqhinga lasehlotyeni, abahlaseli bazama ukuqhatha abantu ukuba bosulele iiPC zabo nge-malware ngokubathumelela i-imeyile ebonakala njenge-invoyisi yetikiti lenqwelomoya kunye nokupasa, inkampani yokhuseleko yatsho namhlanje.
I-spam, ebanga ukuba ivela kwi-Continental Airlines Inc., enkosi kumamkeli ngokusebenzisa inkonzo entsha ethi "Thenga itikiti lokubhabha kwi-Intanethi". Ikwabonelela ngegama lomsebenzisi lokungena kunye negama lokugqitha kwaye ithi ikhadi letyala lomamkeli lihlawuliswe ngaphezulu kwe-900 yeedola, ngokutsho kophando lwe-Trend Micro Inc.
Umyalezo uthi ifayile ye-zip eqhotyoshelweyo ibandakanya i-invoyisi kunye "netikiti lokubhabha." Ngapha koko, kuphawulwe iTrend Micro, ifayile yogcino luqulathe ifayile ephunyezwayo “e-ticket.doc.exe,” eneneni sisibungu seWindows esikhuphela kwaye sifake enye ikhowudi yohlaselo kwiPC.
"Liqhinga elidala elongezelelweyo lokukhohlisa umsebenzisi ukuba acofe kabini isincamatheliso," utshilo uJoey Costoya, umphandi weTrend Micro, ekungeneni kwibhlog yezokhuseleko yenkampani. “Ibinzana elithi 'Ikhadi lakho letyala lihlawulisiwe ...' lizakongeza ixhala elingakumbi kumsebenzisi, limkholise ngakumbi ukuba ahlole [kwaye] acofe kabini 'iinkcukacha zendiza," wongeze watsho uCostoya.
Uhlaselo oluphantse lufane lubethe abathengi ngoJulayi ophelileyo xa abaqweqwedisi bethumela i-spam eyenziwe ngeposi evela kwi-Delta Air Lines Inc. kunye ne-Northwest Airlines Corp. Phakathi kweeyantlukwano ezimbalwa: Iphulo langoku liye lanyusa ngokumangalisayo imali ekucingelwa ukuba ihlawuliswe kumakhadi okuthenga ngetyala abamkeli. NgoJulayi, amanani ayehlala ekwi-400 yeedola.
Amaxabiso etikiti lenqwelomoya enyuke kweli hlotyeni njengoko iindleko zepetroli zinyuka, into leyo i-Continental yaqaphela xa ithumela umvuzo wayo wekota yesithathu ngoLwesihlanu odlulileyo. I-airline, eyabika ilahleko ye-236 yezigidi zeedola kwikota, yatyhola amaxabiso aphezulu epetroli kunye neNkanyamba i-Ike ngenxa yokusebenza kwayo kakubi.
Ngokutsho kwe-Continental, i-jet fuel yayo i-avareji ye-3.49 yeegaloni ngexesha lekota, ukusuka kwi-$ 2.16, ukunyuka kwe-62%. Amaxabiso epetroli anyuke kwi-4.21 yeedola ngeli xesha, utshilo u-Continental.
I-malware esetyenziswe ngoJulayi nayo yahlukile kwikhowudi yokuhlasela ebonwe yi-Trend Micro. Kwiinyanga ezintathu ezidlulileyo, abahlaseli bazame ukutyala ihashe leTrojan elebiwayo kwiiPC zabasebenzisi. Ihashe leTrojan lizenzele igama ngo-2007 njengoko i-malware yayisetyenziselwa ukukrazula iirekhodi zabathengi ezingaphezu kwe-1.6 yezigidi ezivela kwi-Monster Worldwide Inc., inkampani eqhuba indawo yemisebenzi eyaziwayo ye-Monster.com.
INTO ONOKUYITHATHA KWELI NQAKU:
- Ihashe leTrojan lizenzele igama ngo-2007 njengoko i-malware yayisetyenziselwa ukukrazula ngaphezu kwe-1.
- Ukuphindaphinda iqhinga lasehlotyeni, abahlaseli bazama ukuqhatha abantu ukuba bosulele iiPC zabo nge-malware ngokubathumelela i-imeyile ebonakala njenge-invoyisi yetikiti lenqwelomoya kunye nokupasa, inkampani yokhuseleko yatsho namhlanje.
- Ikwabonelela ngegama lomsebenzisi lokungena kunye negama lokugqitha kwaye ithi ikhadi letyala lomamkeli lihlawuliswe ngaphezulu kwe $900, ngokutsho kweTrend Micro Inc.
