This episode will change your life! As if Clickbait headlines
weren’t bad enough: now there’s something even worse lurking on the
internet: Clickbait PDFs. Giada Stivala, PhD candidate and CISPA
researcher, has discovered this new type of phishing attack, in
which scammers are desperately trying to steal your click (and
ultimately your data and/or money). Giada tells us how she scoured
hacker forums to get to the bottom of these attacks, what the road
from discovery to a finished research paper looks like and what to
watch out for to protect yourself against these new phishing scams.
