i have to ask; could this secret delivery actually be anything else than an executable file attached to an email?
edit:
ok, they seem to use phishing attacks for this sort of thing. but both methods definitely do not deliver anything just because you log in to your yahoo account, as the article states.
- dobbsbob 13y agoIf yahoo sends you FBI made tracking and demasking cookies instead of a regular one that would work though they claim they didn't help. Could also have found out what vpn this guy used and had them redirect Iran originating traffic to the FBI fake yahoo MITM login full of java exploits or sent him a malware image and turned on image preview on his account. So turns out this guy is just trolling on cruise control because why not, not like he's going to be extradited for harassing Americans. Likely there's a work station at every Iranian military base in the cafeteria that says 'troll FBI here'
