There is some thief running amok amongst altcoins and using forums to peddle his software. He will offer a free instant messenger, for example here it would be called Infinitecoin Messenger, where people can download and install his app. You enter your wallet address as your user name.

Well as soon as your wallet syncs with the network his app will steal all of your coins and not just ifc. It will wipe you out of every coin on your computer.

Please be aware of this prick.
