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.

Additionally, these people know what sort of cars are susceptible to higher risk plus the higher risk they may have the higher your premium amount. Understanding the simple basics involving car insurance can help you choose the right sort of insurance policy that will take care of your preferences in case you happen to be involved in any accident.

  30. We would also like to mention that most people who find themselves without having health insurance are typically students, self-employed and those that are out of work. More than half in the uninsured are really under the age of 35. They do not really feel they are looking for health insurance because they are young and also healthy. Their particular income is often spent on homes, food, in addition to entertainment. Lots of people that do go to work either entire or not professional are not given insurance by way of their jobs so they proceed without as a result of rising price of health insurance in the country. Thanks for the ideas you share through this blog.

  36. Thanks for your submission. I would also love to comment that the very first thing you will need to do is to see if you really need credit score improvement. To do that you will have to get your hands on a replica of your credit history. That should never be difficult, because the government makes it necessary that you are allowed to receive one free of charge copy of your real credit report on a yearly basis. You just have to request the right people. You can either look into the website for that Federal Trade Commission as well as contact one of the major credit agencies straight.
