Schneier on Security: Don't Let Hacker Inmates Reprogram Prison Computers
And what about "genius" phishers (since when do you need to be a genius to do phishing?) recruited by silly security companies ?October 02 2009
“ In recent years, several authors began to work on the concept of security attacks against wireless communication protocols—in particular, the propagation of malware through them. The idea challenged and thrilled us, mainly because it brought back the concept of physical and geographic interaction in attack scenarios.I believe that the latest "developments" on these threats are stepping progressively away from reality and into an abstract, academic world of their own—something that might be just as fun, but that should be brought back into perspective when assessing the actual risks related to these scenarios. Here we see why, with two distinct examples. ”— Wireless Malware Propagation: A Reality Check

This is really news...
As some of you may know, I am chairing a scientific conference (http://www.ec2nd.org). I received an interesting scam message:
Subject: INTERNATIONAL PARTICIPATION IN YOUR CONFERENCE
From: universityofmala@aol.com
Attention: Conference Organiser,
I write onbehalf of the management of University Of Malawi, In respect of our four Schorlaship Postgraduate student whom they are on schorlaship to participate in your upcoming conference.
They intend to attend your conference to gain more knowledge in compeleting there final year project, All the travelling expenses of this students to attend this event will be borne by THETE GROUP OF COMPANY Here in Malawi.
From:
REGISTRATION FEES.
RETURN AIR TICKET.
MEDICAL TRAVEL INSURANCE.
ACCOMODATION.
BASIC TRAVEL ALLOWANCES.
The management of our University will request for official letter of invitation on behalf of this students and you can send this by email attachment as soon as possible.
Our outmost regards to the entire conference working committees.
Yours Sincerely,
Prof. Magret Ngoma
Of course there are several things here that alert to the scam:
1) the bad spelling, of course
2) the low likelihood of "several students" from a small, far away country, being expensed by a company to attend a conference in Europe, which programme is still in the making
3) the fact that the mail comes from a non-official address
4) the fact that a web search for the name of the professor doesn't turn out anything...
But what can be the purpose of such a scam? My first guess is that the point is getting me to send an official letter of invitation, which can then be used to obtain a visa which would be valid for all of the Schengen countries.
Does anybody have any other ideas?
