A large number of Links in locals and Bios of "Isk service" chars or other "nices Guys" contains Malware and Keylogger.
Testet links on VMs.
watch out for some strange endings like .ls / .rt / .gg / .wtf / .to and thinks like that.

The unavoidable downside of doing away with the ingame browser, I guess.

Thanks for the warning.
I hope that you've reported the people with those links in their bio to CCP, I can't see them standing for those kinds of shenanigans.
Civilised behaviour is knowing that violence is barbaric, but paying other people to do it is business.

Hey, good looking out!
Please report people spreading malware/sketchy links through the ticket system, either through the help desk at https://support.eveonline.com/hc/en-us or by email to [email protected]. Knowingly sending out bad or otherwise malicious links is not allowed.
You may also email the security team directly at [email protected]; replies may or may not be sent here, depending on the volume. The inbox is monitored daily.
To be clear, I don't want a ticket every time someone links to an edgy picture hosted on imgur in local, but if you suspect or know that the link is malicious, please let us know about it.
https://www.virustotal.com/ is a great resource for scanning URL's and files.
Appreciate the help and stay vigilant, friends!

It would be even better if you could introduce a configuration where I can define what browser and parameters I would like to start the link with ... a sandboxied chrome comes to my mind.

it was clear from the start that this would happen without the ingame browser.
CCP should just deactivate links to websites to save themself a lot of tickets... |

Once the perpetrators get muted/banned the supply of bad links will dry up pretty quickly I imagine. Sure there will always be a couple out there but not enough to justify removing links entirely.

It depends on how determined they are and how many throwaway accounts they throw at us.
Simplest solution: no links from trials.

But yeah that would work - and it would be another way to encourage them to upgrade I suppose.

i agree.
Alpha clones will be used for this purpose as throw aways. One of the downsides of them i suppose, but I'm not against them.
Treat the links like any other on the net. Click at your own risk.

If things like this become a big enough problem with alpha clones CCP is going to have to start looking into bans that extend beyond an "account" to an IP address/email address/etc most likely.
Fun times ahead for team security - I don't envy them.

That's the nice and scary part of a steam account. Doing wrong in one game can have widespread consequences. IMHO alpha accounts should be linked to a credit card or a steam account which will make banning people more effective because you can create a throwaway email address in seconds but nobody will do this with credit cards or a steam account. |

Why doesn't WG simply run URL's that are pasted in public chat through URL filters to see if someone is pushing malware. I doubt it would be a huge drain on their resources, and they could automagically ban people for doing this sorta stuff.
It would be nice if all types of "shortcuts" in chat looked different. A lot of stuff in jita now is just typed over with something else, so "WTS Trit" now leads to in-game "Porn Chat"... |

CCP really only have themselves to blame with this, what with the removal of the IGB (which was, IMO, intrinsically useful while playing)

This isn't enough.
EVE players (or at least, the less computer aware and/or dilligent ones) are probably among the best demographic for cybercrimes like Cryptolocker ransoms.
The criminals behind those can afford to spoof IPs easily, and email addresses are already free.
An outright client-enforced ban on trial accounts/alpha clones posting links, AND an outright ban on anyone that hasn't paid CCP at least once via a verified Paypal or CC should probably be considered.
It's not like you cannot play EVE without posting links.
