Snag a “Job” with WARMCOOKIE: Phishers’ Latest Bait to Hack Your Windows

Hot Take:

Let's crumble this WarmCookie before it steals our job offers—and everything else! Cyber crooks are now masquerading as your friendly neighborhood headhunters, serving up a side of Windows backdoor with every job opportunity. It's like getting a Trojan horse with your employment contract, but instead of a horse, it's a cookie, and instead of ancient Troy, it's your computer. Yummy for hackers, crummy for us!

Okay, deep breath, let's get this over with. In the grand act of digital self-sabotage, we've littered this site with cookies. Yep, we did that. Why? So your highness can have a 'premium' experience or whatever. These traitorous cookies hide in your browser, eagerly waiting to welcome you back like a guilty dog that's just chewed your favorite shoe. And, if that's not enough, they also tattle on which parts of our sad little corner of the web you obsess over. Feels dirty, doesn't it?
