Cybercriminals are exploiting Osama bin Laden’s death to trick people into visiting malicious websites. The phrase "Osama bin laden dead" was the most popular phrase entered into search engines Monday, and scammers used that opportunity to luring people to malicious sites. There are also infected messages circulating on Facebook with links to videos and pictures, sometimes leading to bogus ads by legitimate companies. When the ad is clicked, it leads to a malicious site. If a site promises a photo of bin Laden's dead body, it's probably a trick.
