Criminals Hit the Online Casinos Players

Phishing is nothing new – but it may feel like phishing is become more and more common on the internet, and that may very well be true. The Symantec Corporation just released information that phishing is currently a major concern for the online casinos industry because there are currently criminals specifically targeting players at the smaller gambling sites. Symantec is one of the larger internet security software companies on the market, and as more and more online casinos gamblers get their information phished, Symantec has traced the activity to a handful of unnamed gambling sites that are run out of both Antigua and the Dutch Antilles.

The Symantec Corporation operates under the Norton brand name and sells some of the most popular software on the market that is designed to protect personal and business computers from viruses, Trojans, spyware and any other malicious software that users may encounter in through using the internet. Phishing though is something that is harder to control because the criminals do not place information onto a personal computer, but rather direct online casinos players to misleading Web sites and request password and login information.

Symatec has issued a warning to online casinos gamblers who may use the smaller gambling sites to both be alert and use caution when following links to enter any sort of bank account information, login information, or any personal information in general. The criminals perpetrating these phishing attacks are extremely hard to pin down because they are generally operating the phishing from a different country or even region.
