Official Sony PlayStation site hacked as gamers get targeted by Trojans

This week Sophos has been warning visitors to the Sony PlayStation website to watch out as they are at risk from a malware infection. It discovered that a number of pages at the official US PlayStation site have been compromised by hackers. Specifically, Sophos warns, gamers need to be careful of the SingStar Pop and the God of War pages as the hackers have infected unauthorised code into these. The code takes the usual route of attempting to fool visitors into visiting a bogus site and, in this case, buying bogus software.
