If you receive an offer to see nude pictures of Twilight actress Ashley Greene you should steer well clear, security experts have warned.
Images of Greene were circulating on the web earlier this week but Graham Cluley of Sophos has said that cybercriminals are exploiting interest in the topic for their own ends.
"My advice is that if you're a fan of Ashley Greene - go see her movies in the cinema or on DVD, don't hunt for naked images of her on the internet," said Cluley.
Sophos has spotted links on web forums claiming to direct surfers to the saucy images, but actually take you to a compromised website.
The site even recognises whether you are using a Windows or Mac operating system so it can give you the appropriate infection.
This is far from being the first scam offering naked pictures of celebrities.
In the recent past, Megan Fox, Angelina Jolie, Paris Hilton and Britney Spears have all been used as bait in similar scams.

Perhaps you wouldn't mind having your name used in such a way, Simon, but who would open their emails?
