Theft of bank account details from Yahoo
Messenger users has risen markedly over the last two months, according to Bkav
Internet Security Corporation.


Nguyen
Minh Duc, head of Internet Security at Bkav, said hackers used various
strategies to get users of the instant messaging system to reveal their bank
account details.


The
company said hackers often pretended to be family members to get chat users to
reveal private information.


Meanwhile, Yahoo! on Tuesday launched Yahoo! Safely Viet Nam website at http://vn.safely.yahoo.com
to help Internet users make safe and smarter choices online.
