New Delhi: Royal Challengers Bangalore's batsman Chris Gayle may not have set the cricket arena on fire in IPL's latest edition but he certainly is hot when it comes to selling a product.West Indian cricketer Chris Gayle named the 'most sensational Cricketer' for the second year in a row in Indian cyberspace, with spammers using his name to lure netizens to malicious websites, security software maker McAfee said. McAfee, a part of Intel Security, named Gayle as the 'most sensational cricketer' according to this season's top players of the cricketing world based on their popularity and related risk quotient in the Indian cyberspace. The study highlights the trend of cybercriminals using cricketers to take advantage of fans seeking more information about their idols. "Cybercriminals often capitalise on the public's fascination with cricketers to lure them to sites laden with malware that can potentially result in identity thefts, stealing of passwords and confidential personal information," McAfee VP Engineering Consumer, Business Group, McAfee India Centre Venkat Krishnapur told PTI. This year, searches for a cricketer's name combined with terms like 'wall paper', 'free download', 'hot pictures', 'selfie' and 'videos' resulted in the highest instances of malicious sites, he added. After Gayle, the other cricketers in the top 10 list were Aussie batsman Glenn Maxwell, Virat Kohli, Caribbean spinner Sunil Narine and Ms Dhoni
