Fan Check, il malware, e il falso antivirus

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.

  1. I discovered more new stuff on this weight loss issue. 1 issue is that good nutrition is extremely vital if dieting. A tremendous reduction in fast foods, sugary ingredients, fried foods, sweet foods, pork, and whitened flour products may perhaps be necessary. Keeping wastes parasitic organisms, and harmful toxins may prevent desired goals for fat loss. While a number of drugs momentarily solve the condition, the unpleasant side effects will not be worth it, and they also never give more than a temporary solution. It is a known proven fact that 95 of diet plans fail. Many thanks for sharing your thinking on this weblog.

  6. I have observed that in unwanted cameras, special receptors help to {focus|concentrate|maintain focus|target|a**** automatically. Those kind of sensors associated with some video cameras change in contrast, while others make use of a beam involving infra-red (IR) light, specially in low lumination. Higher spec cameras oftentimes use a mix of both techniques and likely have Face Priority AF where the dslr camera can ‘See’ a face as you concentrate only on that. Many thanks for sharing your thinking on this weblog.

  8. Yet another thing I would like to convey is that as opposed to trying to suit all your online degree training on days of the week that you complete work (since most people are drained when they go back home), try to get most of your lessons on the week-ends and only one or two courses for weekdays, even if it means a little time off your end of the week. This is really good because on the saturdays and sundays, you will be extra rested and concentrated for school work. Thanks alot : ) for the different tips I have figured out from your blog site.

  13. One important issue is that when you’re searching for a student loan you may find that you’ll need a co-signer. There are many situations where this is correct because you could find that you do not use a past credit rating so the bank will require that you’ve got someone cosign the money for you. Great post.
