A new facebook scam message is spreading rapidly and has gone viral among the facebook users, It looks like that Facebook has became most favorite play ground for spammers, Facebook Dislike button has gone viral.
Here is the screenshot of the Facebook dislike button scam message:
Facebook now has a dislike button! Click 'Enable Dislike Button' to turn on the new feature!
Now as you can see from the above screen shot the link "Activate Dislike Button" looks genuine and it appears to be where the Share button is placed. Once the victim clicks on the "Activate Dislike Button", He arrives on a page where it asks to paste a JavaScript on to his/her address bar. Once the victim does that, The same message get's posted on his/her wall.
How It Works?
As I told you above that the "Activate Dislike Button" appears where the "share" button is usually placed, This is all because of the javascript, The Javscript which the victim pastes in his/her address bar actually renames the "Share" button to "Activate Dislike Button" but the functionality of the button is same due to which the message get's posted on the victims wall.Is it a Virus?
Yes,See the DetectionIt's a part of russian malware/virus, Which once executed properly will leak your email passwords like Facebook, Yahoo, hotmail, Ebay, Paypal etc to the hacker.
