Monster.com Site Hacked: Be Alert for Phishing Scam!

Hackers successfully breached security at Monster.com this week in one of the largest such online incidents in recent history, stealing personal information on more than 100,000 job candidates who had posted their resumes on the site. This breach was followed by phishing attacks via e-mail designed to compromise users' online financial institution security and/or infect their PC's with a disabling virus.

For more information, see my article "ALERT: More than 100,000 Monster.com Users' Personal Information Plundered" on the CareerHub career experts blog.
