If you've used aol instant messenger, you've probably gotten an im from someone with an infected computer. I've seen ones that pause and ones that do other things, but this one was actually convincing for a second till I checked. Read it below:
So basically, it ims you with a sophisticated "yoo" makes it seem real, then waits for me to respond. After that it says "whats up" just like real person would. I then mention the word "virus" because I know I always get them from this girl. It then assuages my concern by saying it's not a virus. And then sends the link and signs off. I am impressed by the sophistication of this.
Is this impressive to anyone else or am I just ignorant?
