Phishers hooking Facebook, Twitter, Google, Yahoo passwords

Scammers have launched a campaign preying on users of OpenID in an attempt to steal log-in credentials, according to Barracuda Labs.

Barracuda security researchers Dave Michmerhuizen and Luis Chapetti say they are seeing specially built log-in pages that appear similar to pages used as part of the OpenID authentication process. When users type in their credentials, the data is collected by a rogue website, which sends back a message that the credentials have been validated.
