A Sick Scam

By Brad

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention has released an alert warning of email scams centered around the H1N1 (or “Swine Flu”) virus. From the alert:

CDC has received reports of fraudulent emails (phishing) referencing a CDC sponsored State Vaccination Program.

The messages request that users must create a personal H1N1 (swine flu) Vaccination Profile on the cdc.gov website. The message then states that anyone that has reached the age of 18 has to have his/her personal Vaccination Profile on the cdc.gov site.
