Fan Check, il malware, e il falso antivirus

Sul profilo di Facebook Security è apparso un messaggio piuttosto allarmante, che avverte gli utenti di fare attenzione alle applicazioni sospette che potrebbero veicolare virus, e in particolare a quei finti antivirus che in realtà sarebbero degli insospettabili malware.

We’re getting reports of malware disguised as anti-virus software that’s using a rumor about a Facebook application to spread. As always, be alert, and if a piece of software seems suspicious, don’t download it. Please share this with your friends.

Insomma, gira la voce che un falso antivirus prometta di liberarvi il computer da una pericolosa applicazione Facebook infetta, mentre l’antivirus stesso sarebbe in realtà un virus.

Una storia complicata ma abbastanza familiare a chi in passato ha scaricato una apps conosciuta come Stalker Check o Fan Check, che prometteva di farvi vedere chi visitava il vostro profilo o le vostre foto. Ebbene, sembra che basti diventare fan dell’applicazione per essere infettati dal virus.

La voce (non confermata però da Symantec) ha fatto il giro del mondo, e gli hacker ne hanno approfittato, creando falsi siti che promettevano di liberare il computer da questo virus, mentre in realtà ne istallavano un altro molto più pericoloso.

Noi di IoChatto vi ricordiamo di non scaricare software sospetto da Facebook, e di segnalare ogni strano comportamento a [email protected] l’indirizzo di posta dedicato alla segnalazione degli abusi su Facebook.

  22. Some tips i have observed in terms of pc memory is that there are specs such as SDRAM, DDR and so forth, that must fit the requirements of the mother board. If the pc’s motherboard is kind of current while there are no computer OS issues, changing the memory literally normally requires under an hour or so. It’s on the list of easiest laptop upgrade processes one can imagine. Thanks for expressing your ideas.
