just a head's up

if you have a skype account and a friend sends you a "baidu" link or something vaguely similar, don't click it (obviously).

notify your friend(s) that they need to change their skype password and anything vaguely associated with their skype; since it's a win10 app now, basically ALL of their passwords. it'll take forever.

let them know they probably also need to scan for malware too.

anyways, here's the "official" skype mod post https://community.skype.com/t5/Security-Privacy-Trust-and/Spoofed-message-from-contact/m-p/4061493#M48838

edit: i think this is the right place to post something like this? i never use the forums whoops

Ugh, someone sent me a Baidu link out of the blue. It was awfully uncharacteristic.
