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. I believe that avoiding ready-made foods will be the first step so that you can lose weight. They will often taste excellent, but packaged foods have got very little vitamins and minerals, making you eat more to have enough electricity to get with the day. Should you be constantly feeding on these foods, transitioning to whole grains and other complex carbohydrates will help you to have more energy while eating less. Thanks alot : ) for your blog post.

  29. In these days of austerity as well as relative anxiousness about getting debt, most people balk against the idea of utilizing a credit card in order to make purchase of merchandise as well as pay for a vacation, preferring, instead to rely on the particular tried and also trusted means of making settlement – hard cash. However, if you possess cash on hand to make the purchase fully, then, paradoxically, that is the best time to be able to use the credit cards for several causes.
