These days, many Facebook users started receivинг messages from their friends that are actually sent by a virus.
These messages have a link that redirects you to a webpage that looks as if it belongs to Facebook and asks you to log in again – by doing this it steals your Facebook username and password and afterwards forwards messages with the same content.
Prevention
If you have somehow reached a webpage that looks like Facebook, and you had already logged in before, do not enter your username and password.
Treatment
If you doubt that your computer is infected with this virus, close your browser and all the tabs, then log in at the Facebook homepage (www.facebook.com) and change your password.
