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.

  8. Thanks for sharing your ideas. I might also like to express that video games have been actually evolving. Modern technology and innovations have helped create sensible and interactive games. These types of entertainment video games were not actually sensible when the real concept was being tried out. Just like other designs of technology, video games as well have had to advance as a result of many many years. This is testimony for the fast continuing development of video games.

  44. Thanks for the new stuff you have discovered in your short article. One thing I’d like to touch upon is that FSBO associations are built after some time. By introducing yourself to owners the first few days their FSBO is announced, before the masses start off calling on Wednesday, you create a good association. By giving them equipment, educational materials, free reviews, and forms, you become an ally. Through a personal interest in them and their problem, you build a solid relationship that, oftentimes, pays off if the owners opt with a broker they know along with trust — preferably you actually.
