Targeted Phishing from Salesforce.com Leak
From Slashdot:
Salesforce.com has finally acknowledged what security experts have suspected for weeks: that a Salesforce.com employee had his company credentials stolen
in a phishing scam, and criminals have been using names and e-mail addresses from Salesforce’s customer list to conduct other highly targeted phishing attacks, including the recent round of fake e-mails apparently from the Federal Trade Commission.” In such hightly targeted attacks, the AV companies are at a loss—they have little chance of quickly developing signatures for threats that only reach a few thousand victims.
