Fan Check, il malware, e il falso antivirus

Spread the love

facebook security

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.

  3. One thing I have actually noticed is that there are plenty of myths regarding the financial institutions intentions any time talking about property foreclosure. One myth in particular would be the fact the bank wishes to have your house. Your banker wants your money, not your house. They want the money they loaned you having interest. Preventing the bank will draw any foreclosed realization. Thanks for your posting.

  5. Thanks for your blog post. A few things i would like to bring about is that pc memory is required to be purchased when your computer can no longer cope with that which you do along with it. One can install two random access memory boards containing 1GB each, for instance, but not one of 1GB and one with 2GB. One should look for the car maker’s documentation for the PC to ensure what type of ram it can take.

  6. Hello would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with? I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a tough time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique. P.S Apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

  9. One thing I want to touch upon is that fat burning plan fast can be achieved by the suitable diet and exercise. Someone’s size not only affects appearance, but also the actual quality of life. Self-esteem, melancholy, health risks, in addition to physical abilities are damaged in excess weight. It is possible to make everything right whilst still having a gain. If this happens, a condition may be the culprit. While a lot food instead of enough exercise are usually the culprit, common health conditions and widely used prescriptions can easily greatly add to size. Kudos for your post here.
