Phishing on Facebook
Posted on January 4th, 2008 by admin
Wired Magazine warns that hackers for the first time are targeting Facebook users in a scam that harvests their log-in details and passwords.
According to Wired, some Facebook users checked their accounts Wednesday and found postings on their “walls” with this message: “lol i can’t believe these pics got posted … it’s going to be BADDDD when her boyfriend sees these.”
But the link leads to a fake Facebook login page hosted on a Chinese .cn domain. The fake page actually logs the victims into Facebook, but also keeps a copy of their user names and passwords.
