Facebook: Spoof Email virus attack

by admin on October 28, 2009

According to MX Lab - there is an email going around stating that Facebook has reset your login information.  Delete it – it’s a spoof.

As I was reading the MX Lab post – I got this in my email.. Talk about timing!

According to All Facebook This virus only appears to work on Windows computers as it runs an executable file when downloaded. Spoofing official emails from large companies is a pretty standard method for spammers and you should always avoid any email which asks you to download a file. For those that are unaware, we thought it would be useful to keep you up to date about this latest virus.”

Stay aware!

Someone really should track these bastards down and use their head(s) for a toilet brush (public).
