OMG ! FileSonic Is Dead Now !

Another bad news is "The most file-hosting service  service (we used to use previously) FileSonic has gone offline". The file-sharing site went dark on Wednesday and has been unreachable since.
As you might know FileSonic had imposed uploading restrictions on its users shortly after fellow Web locker service MegaUpload was raided by the FBI earlier this year.
Filesonic began limiting what its users could upload and download, and disabled any file-sharing functionality. A banner on the site said: "Our service can only be used to upload and retrieve files that you have uploaded personally."
FileSonic also reportedly deleted files and accounts (of it's user) in January that were associated with piracy or copyright infringement. FileSonic'a Facebook page has also disappeared.
The company had been the target of legal action by a porn company, according to the BBC. Oron, a similar file-sharing site, disappeared from the Web in August following a lawsuit by the same porn company, Flava Works, which accused both sites of assisting their members to infringe copyrighted materials.
Representatives for FileSonic were contacted but did not reply at the time of writing. The bottom line is I think filesonic will also going to be dead like megaupload.

Pirate Bay founder wanted in Sweden over unserved jail sentence is arrested in Cambodia

The man behind controversial download site Pirate Bay who is wanted by authorities in Sweden has been arrested in Cambodia.
Gottfrid Svartholm was arrested on Thursday in the south-east Asian city of Phnon Penh where he made his home several years ago.
Svartholm, whose website has enabled millions of people around the globe to download download files, music and films without paying, was picked up by police at his apartment above the Cadillac Bar on the riverfront, according to the Torrent Freak website.
In October 2011, Swedish courts ordered that the 27-year-old computer specialist be jailed for 12 months after he failed to attend a court appearance.
However he failed to serve his sentence and became a wanted man.
The reason for his arrest has still not been confirmed and neither Cambodian nor Swedish authorities are commenting the matter.
While there has been no official announcement, according Gottfrid’s lawyer Ola Salomonsson the arrest could be related to The Pirate Bay case.

He was quoted as saying: 'As far as I understand it is because he is on an international wanted list.'
The lawyer said he believed Gottfrid could be returned to his home country eventually, even though there is no extradition treaty between Cambodia and Sweden.
The Pirate Bay, launched in 2003 by a group of friends from Sweden, allows users to search for and access copyrighted content including movies, games and TV shows.
In 2009, the Swedish courts found the site's four founders guilty of helping people circumvent copyright controls.
The ruling was upheld after an appeal in 2010 but the site continues to function.
A message on The Pirate Bay's blog said the move was an attempt by the music business to 'squeeze' it out of the market.
It advised users to 'circumvent the block' and campaign against the move.

The message said: 'Write to your ISP and tell them to appeal the case. Write to your local MPs and tell them that this is not allowed. Make sure your voice is heard.
'Remember, we’re all the pirate bay, and we must stand united against the censorship from our opponents.'
The Pirate Party UK, a spin-off from the political movement started in Sweden that backs copyright reform, said the latest move will 'not put any extra pennies into the pockets of artists'.
Gottfrid failed to attend the 2010 appeal hearing due to an illness which confined him to a hospital bed in Cambodia.
Despite having supported his original failure to attend court with a medical certificate, Gottfrid also failed to appear at a follow up hearing.
This prompted the Court of Appeal to finalize the initial verdict of a one year jail sentence and a fine of $1.1 million.
Gottfrid had been due to return to Sweden to start serving his sentence on January 2 this year, but again he failed to appear.

Beware of “Your AOL Mail Update” Phishing Scam !

The old “update your account” scheme is probably still successful, which is most likely why cybercriminals keep coming up with new variants for it. The latest such spam wave targets AOL users.

The message is simple (via millersmiles.co.uk):

DEAR AOL USER

You have to follow the link below to update and verify your E-mail account
to enable continuous access of your E-mail http://webmail.aol.com/verify

Regards,
AOL ONLINE TEAM.

As you might guess, the link doesn’t point to the legitimate AOL login page, but to a replica hosted on a site registered for free in the Czech Republic.

Many of the buttons and the links of the phony website lead to aol.com, but the Sign In button doesn’t compare the credentials against the ones stored in AOL’s servers. Instead, it sends them back to the cybercriminals that run the scheme.

The legitimate links aren’t the only ones that make the plot genuine-looking. The malicious webpage also contains an iframe that displays part of the mail.aol.com page.

There’s a very good reason for which the phishers have deployed this technique. The AOL login page changes, depending on important events that take place.

By embedding part of this page into their scheme, the crooks have a higher chance of making someone believe that they’re on the right domain.

In such cases, there’s a simple way to check if you actually are on the correct website: check the URL displayed in your browser’s address bar.

The legitimate URL starts with “https” (which means that it’s a secure connection) and it ends in “aol.com.”

On 99% of phishing sites, the secure connection is missing and aol.com is not the actual domain, but a subdomain, or possibly the name of a file or a folder.
