Sports fever hits not only the crazy fans world over but also the cybercrooks, who will try to swell their own bank accounts by tricking innocent internet users to fall prey to cyber attacks, say experts.
Cricket World Cup is one of the most viewed sports after FIFA World Cup and Olympics and cyberscammers will try to dupe online users through offers like free match tickets, free online live coverage and holiday packages, they say.
"Global sporting events generate eagerness and enthusiasm not only among sports fans but also the bad boys of cyberspace. With the cricket World cup round the corner, scammers will try to trick as many online users as possible," says Vinoo Thomas, Technical Product Manager, McAfee Labs.
