It must be in the water. Here is a link to another social engineering attack. In this case, attackers gathered some basic personal information and used to get to access to Apple icloud/iTunes accounts. As I have said before, social engineering is on the rise, because it is so easy to get basic personal information. It is also easy to spoof caller ID, but the attackers didn't even have to do that in this case.
