We and our readers do a lot of teasing and, yes, grumbling about covering The Twilight Saga here at Dread Central, but I’m pretty sure none of us would stoop to malicious hacking of fans of the series. Unfortunately that’s not the case for everyone. Read on for the sordid details.
Mashable reports that according to experts at Norton, hackers are taking advantage of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn fans by poisoning links in Twilight-related searches with malware. Some of the search terms that will return results infected with malware are “nude pictures of Taylor Lautner,” “Robert and Kristen kissing” and “Twilight true love.” Norton’s experts expect to see even more Twilight-related malware, scams and spam as the excitement around the movie grows in advance of its release later this week on November 18th so be careful out there on the World Wide Web!
