The Federal Trade?Commission?brought the hammer down on predatory advertisers who scare users into believing that their system is infected with virus and porn. The peddlers of so-called "scareware" are facing a $163 million fine for ?misrepresenting?"expressly or by implication, that they had conducted scans of consumers? computers and detected security or privacy issues, including viruses, spyware, system errors, and pornography." Users who surf the internet enough will recognize scareware advertisements as the ones pretending to have found?malicious?content on their computer and then, conveniently, offer an expensive solution ($30-$100) to fix it.Source: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/l5Rbdz-11gk/
