Hey guys!

Ok, there is a new Facebook phishing page that is spreading very quickly on the internet. A few of my friends have already fallen for it, since it seems very legit.

If you receive a message (most likely you will receive it from an account that has already been compromised), or see a status update that looks like the following, do not click on the link!


* I have replaced parts so that idiots don't go and click on the link.

The page redirects you to a fake Facebook login page that seems very legit, the address also looks very legit.

> How to know if you are on this fake (phished) login page:
• The copyright date will be 2011 and not 2012
• The address will start like this: http://www.facebook.com.login.php-profile-signin...
• The address is not secure (https), this is always a warning that a login page is not legitimate.

Please take care people :)

Yeah problem is that there are older people people that aren't internet savvy at all that use Facebook, and these people are most likely to fall for this.

Just trying to help out :)
 
Lol, doesn't sound or look legit to me at all...
