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.

  12. I’m really enjoying the theme/design of your web site. Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility issues? A handful of my blog visitors have complained about my site not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Opera. Do you have any advice to help fix this issue?

  15. Thanks for the ideas you have provided here. In addition, I believe there are numerous factors which will keep your motor insurance premium down. One is, to take into consideration buying motors that are in the good report on car insurance providers. Cars which might be expensive tend to be more at risk of being lost. Aside from that insurance is also in accordance with the value of your truck, so the higher in price it is, then the higher the actual premium you only pay.

  21. Thanks for discussing your ideas with this blog. Likewise, a misconception regarding the banking companies intentions while talking about home foreclosure is that the financial institution will not getreceive my installments. There is a specific amount of time in which the bank will need payments occasionally. If you are as well deep in the hole, they will commonly require that you pay that payment in whole. However, that doesn’t mean that they will not take any sort of installments at all. Should you and the traditional bank can manage to work a thing out, a foreclosure method may stop. However, in the event you continue to neglect payments in the new plan, the foreclosures process can pick up from where it was left off.

  50. One thing is that one of the most typical incentives for making use of your credit card is a cash-back or even rebate offer. Generally, you will get 1-5 back on various expenditures. Depending on the credit card, you may get 1 back on most purchases, and 5 back again on buying made going to convenience stores, gas stations, grocery stores as well as ‘member merchants’.
