Spybot Search & Destroy Scam

I recently wanted to download Spybot Search and Destroy, a free software package that tests your system for spyware and other malware. I went to Google and typed, “Spybot Search and Destroy” and the following Google results page came up.

In the sponsored links at the top, you see a site called The Official Website for Spybot Search and Destroy. This website actually attempts to charge you for technical support by taking your credit card.

To download the software, you have to select the site further down, the first after the sponsored links. Scams like these are everywhere. Be careful.
