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.

  21. I’d also like to mention that most of those that find themselves without the need of health insurance usually are students, self-employed and those that are jobless. More than half of those uninsured are really under the age of Thirty-five. They do not come to feel they are requiring health insurance as they are young in addition to healthy. Its income is typically spent on real estate, food, plus entertainment. Lots of people that do go to work either complete or in their free time are not given insurance by means of their work so they go without due to rising expense of health insurance in america.

  25. Thanks for the points you have shared here. Something else I would like to state is that computer system memory specifications generally rise along with other breakthroughs in the technologies. For instance, as soon as new generations of processors are made in the market, there is usually a similar increase in the scale demands of both computer system memory as well as hard drive room. This is because the application operated simply by these processors will inevitably rise in power to make new engineering.

  49. One thing I would really like to say is the fact car insurance cancelling is a terrifying experience and if you’re doing the appropriate things as a driver you simply will not get one. Some individuals do obtain notice that they’ve been officially dropped by their particular insurance company and several have to struggle to get supplemental insurance following a cancellation. Low-cost auto insurance rates are usually hard to get from a cancellation. Understanding the main reasons with regard to auto insurance canceling can help people prevent sacrificing one of the most important privileges obtainable. Thanks for the thoughts shared via your blog.
