reunion.com: legit site or malware?
Interesting little thing that happened this morning. My g/f received a request from a friend to join this site. So she clicked on it and it went through her gmail account, sending a request to all email addresses it found. It also opened up a link to an "AV online scanner" that found "3 nasties" on "her system" but when I tried to close the window, it kept insisting on trying to download an "AV software" to her system.
It's interesting how they tout that they've got 34 million members. I wonder how many were falsely led to believe to join because friends "contacted" them about it. My g/f is pissed because it sent itself out to potential work contacts and close friends.
So at the least, be aware that this is out there but I'm curious if others would view this more as malware or what?
