It&rsquo;s relatively easy to pull off, and its success rate is quite high. For example, the recent Facebook scam &ldquo;How to see who viewed your profile!!&rdquo; is a malicious link attack. A malicious link can be explained in one simple sentence: it&rsquo;s a URL that contains a Trojan, a virus, or something that can take control of your computer. When you click on such a link, your computer has probably already been infected.</p>
