It’s another email scam targeting Facebook users.
By now a good deal of web surfers are connected to a social network website in some aspect, whether its to hunt down old high-school friends or to post another silly buzz from a demanding boss. Naturally places like Facebook and MySpace are havens for hackers looking for a good pool of information to steal, throwing out lures in hopes of reeling in a really big fish.
With that said, it should come as no shock that hackers are flooding inboxes with virus-tainted spam that’s targeting Facebook’s over 400 million users. According to McAfee, the hackers are looking for the usual bag of goodies: your username, passwords, and whatever else they can acquire. The hook? Fake Facebook emails telling recipients that their password has been reset, and they need to click on an attachment to retrieve it.
