LATE EDITION

BREAKING IT NEWS FOR AUSTRALIAN BUSINESS

Friday June 19, 2009

EDITOR'S NOTE

Good afternoon,

It seems the tax refund phishing scam first reported earlier this month by iTnews certainly found an audience.

A security expert at Trend Micro examined the scam site and uncovered the number of hits it received goes well into the six figures. Read on for more.

Also today, the ACS reports salary package changes in the last financial year. How did you fare?

-- Ry Crozier
