‘Change Password Notification’ Malware Hits Facebook

Facebook has been the victim of the many spam, scam and hacking activities. Recently, another spammed activity hit the social network. This time the hacker and cyber criminals are trying to steal your credentials via Change Password Notification.

Hackers sends you an email from ‘Facebook Service’ (which is not a Facebook Service it is the address of the spammers) in that email you will be informed about the change in your Facebook password due to some spamming activity. Cyber criminals are now trying to send you some emails with Trojan horse attachments just to trick you. Email says that your personal data has been changes in actual there is nothing like that.

Hidden Trojans in the email are Troj/Agent-QAY and Mal/BredoZp-B. Both the Trojan and the malware are harmful for your computer. I am advising you keep yourself away from these kind of emails and please do change your password twice a month. Do not click any of the given attachment as they can steal your credentials. Keep your machine updated with the latest and brilliant antivirus.
