The Japanese Sony must be hoping that this week is over quickly. There were more than five days (assuming you are already eleven o'clock in the land of the rising sun) of PSN network-related problems, which ran for more than 15 days off the air. To complete at least one site of an unimportant company's office was committed.
Security firm F-Secure has detected that a subdomain of Sony in Thailand actually takes the user to a page whose goal is simple: Practice phishing. In other words, tricking users to report important data that will later be used by criminals for the most varied (and illegal) purposes.

The Next Web staff took the test: not logged http://hdworld.sony.co.th and came face to face with the page that you see above. In Italian, it asks the user to enter your username and password to enter the system. Google Chrome, only smart guy who, even alerts the user that the site allegedly common practice of phishing attempts.
I, who am brave, I tried to open the same page to confer with my own eyes what it is. Unfortunately, the best I got was a message stating that the account is suspended and that the domain or has been "used over the top or the reseller ran out of resources. " Must have so many people trying to check in a FAIL from Sony that the site was closed.
Page is currently off air
If Sony is working to solve the problem? Good question.
