Microsoft this week debuted a new campaign for Internet Explorer 8, highlighting how it easy it is to fall victim to online scams.

A TV spot kicked off the campaign on Monday night during Fox’s Lie to Me and Good Guys.

Consumers are told to fill out outrageous information, including the kind of underwear they prefer, until it’s revealed that the bank is fake.
