Google+ email scam
Google+ has become the victim of a hacking group sending out fake invites to the service, which instead directs users to a pharmaceutical website, says security firm.
A Canadian group of hackers called Partnerka, have been sending out fake invites to join the new service, which is still being trialled and only available via invitation only.
The fake invites look very parallel to the ones being issued by Google+ members and appear as if they have come from a real member of the network.Though, when the receiver clicks through to join Google+, the link takes them to a Canadian pharmaceutical website selling Viagra.
But you should be careful and check the individuality of the person allegedly sending them the invite to join Google+.
