Malicious Links in Facebook spreads again....

Two Malicious Links circling around Facebook Friends. Delete these if you see it in your profile....




i) LOL have a look at this... 5 things every girl does before she meets her boyfriend http:// tiny.cc/ krola

 

  - There is absolutely nothing to know what a girl does before she meets her BF...DELETE IT

     IMMEDIATELY. 

 

Why should i delete it?

 

- Remove the spaces from the above link and open it (facebook have already blocked it). Anyway it

would have taken you to a page where you will have to Allow the application to access your 

profile...Along with the Allow button there are two already checked boxes which will change your 

homepage to "My Websearch" and also install a toolbar. "My Websearch" is a known nasty adware 

which will continuously open backdoors for other Malicious Trojans to enter and after that u know 

whats going to happen..And..Lets say you uncheck the check boxes and then allow the application to 

access your facebook profile.What next?...Your profile will be automatically posting links to all your 

friends till your account gets suspended by facebook(Defensio guys).

 


ii) OMG OMG OMG... I cant believe this actually works! Now you really can see who views your

      page!..See Who Viewed Your Facebook Page! on page-view.info.


   -  This is never going to happen in Facebook. It is against Facebook's privacy and security policy

       to track and display who visited your profile unlike Orkut....DELETE IT IMMEDIATELY. 

You can visit the facebook security page to read the policies. If incase u follow the message it'll end
up doing the same thing as the first one.. 
Report any security issues to facebook:
