To be more concrete, when you are surfing the Internet on an infected PC via Google Chrome, there will be a window popping up asking you to do a little favor. In the window you will be reading “Congratulations! You’ve been selected from the Los Angeles region to take part in our annual visitor survey. This will only take 30 seconds of your time and will enhance user experience. Upon completion you will have the opportunity to get a Macbook Air ®, Apple iPhone 4S®, or a iPad 2®.” You may think you are so lucky for being chosen for this survey and then click on the “Start Now!” button.
