The Better Business Bureau (BBB) is the target of a new phishing scam, in which a user is asked to download a rogue ActiveX installer upon visiting the Web site www.national-bbb.com/complaints/ViewReport.php?case=509134429&;biz=&bbb=1186. The said installer is actually a Trojan downloader file named Acrobat.exe.
