There is a new phishing mail from "status checker" targeting users of MSN Messenger inviting them to see who deleted or blocked them from their contact list.

Everyone wants to know who has blocked or deleted them from MSN or other social networks so many people will click now and think later.

Trend Micro site has screen shots of the latest phishing attack.

If you click on the link it takes you to a spoof/fake login. Once criminals have your login information they can send spam to your friends. Afterall, friends are more likely to open and believe emails from other friends.

Criminals can also take over your account by changing your passwords. It can be a long and difficult to get your account back.

Although this attack is targeting MSN users I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't quickly spread to other social networks.
