Micro identified more than 3,600 spyware attacks last year designed to
gather log-in and password information for online games such as
Second
Life,
Lineage
and
World
of Warcraft.
The password stealers are often spread through spam messages where they are
presented as virtual goods or popular media content such as music or movie
files.
The thieves can then auction off virtual currencies and accessories such as
clothing and weapons.
World of Warcraft avatars can fetch several hundred dollars on
auction sites. After the auction has ended, the seller and buyers will meet each
other inside the game to handle the final transaction.
