Limbo 2 Trojan Bad News for Floating PIN Pads



Accel Exchange recently announced they are launching an Internet PIN Debit platform by Acculynk, for the web.

Here's how it works:







PaySecure™ is simple to use.

Just "
type" in personal details, such as your debit card information at the merchant checkout as you normally would...

card number, expiration date, and security code.










If your debit card can be used with a PIN, the PaySecure™ graphical, scrambling PIN-pad will appear

on your computer screen for the secure and easy entry of your PIN.




Just enter your PIN using your mouse, click "Continue" and your transaction is processed. 







PaySecure™ requires PIN entry by mouse; your PIN cannot be entered by typing the numbers on your keyboard. This security feature is designed to prevent keylogging of your PIN.





Sounds great...there's just one problem.  Who says It won't prevent keylogging of your PIN?
