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.

  13. Aw, this was an exceptionally good post. Spending some time and actual effort to make a superb article… but what can I say… I put things off a whole lot and don’t manage to get nearly anything done.

  21. Thanks for the useful information on credit repair on this excellent blog. The thing I would advice people is to give up the particular mentality that they may buy right now and fork out later. Like a society we all tend to try this for many issues. This includes holidays, furniture, in addition to items we would like. However, you should separate the wants out of the needs. When you’re working to improve your credit score actually you need some sacrifices. For example you’ll be able to shop online to save cash or you can check out second hand shops instead of expensive department stores intended for clothing.

  35. When I originally left a comment I seem to have clicked on the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now each time a comment is added I receive four emails with the exact same comment. Perhaps there is a means you can remove me from that service? Cheers!|

  41. I don’t know whether it’s just me or if everybody else experiencing problems with your blog.

    It appears like some of the text within your posts are
    running off the screen. Can someone else please comment and let me know if this is happening to them as well?
    This may be a issue with my browser because I’ve had this happen before.
    Many thanks

  43. Have you ever considered about including a little bit more than just your articles?
    I mean, what you say is fundamental and everything. But just
    imagine if you added some great visuals or videos to give
    your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with
    images and video clips, this website could certainly be
    one of the most beneficial in its niche.
    Amazing blog!
