I think nearly every sweeper here is too smart to fall for this, but it doesn't hurt to pass this on.
  • Identity criminals are using realistic, fake CAPTCHA pages to scam Windows users into running malicious commands that download an information-stealer.
  • The captcha scam instructs victims to press Windows Key + R, then Ctrl + V, then Enter — a sequence that pastes and runs a hidden command from the clipboard.
