There is some SMiShing going on in the EU
We've had a few reports so far where people receive an SMS which asks them to check out a particular URL, which predictably contains something extra. Currently the reports are from the UK and Germany. The text of the SMS is typically along these lines " Someone posted your full personal and banking information at insert-bad-url-here* website you must remove it now*". The text does vary slightly in some of the samples seen. The url typically has some badness in the form of a trojan. This particular one, which Holger alerted us to (thanks), contained a trojan called Ambler. So keep an eye on your VoIP systems and some user education is probably also not a bad idea.
