Security firms have said that a worm is circulating around the world through a mail message connected to the ongoing Fifa Soccer World Cup.

As per incoming reports Sixem-A worm is being sent to people with subject lines such as “Naked World Cup game set” and “Crazy soccer fans”.

Looking at the popularity of the Soccer game around the world, this can turn into a big problem as people might be lured into running an attachment leading to their computers being infected.

If the computer is infected, the worm attempts to disable security software, leaving the computer open to further attack. Users are again advised to not open e-mail attachments from unreliable sources.

James Rendell, senior technology specialist at Internet Security Systems spoke on this worrying news: “It was only time before we started seeing hackers taking advantage of the fun and festive time people are having around the World Cup. We suspect that this is only the start of things to come.”
