So i just received what i'm pretty sure is a something to lead me to a virus/phishing scam. my computer is pretty tightly secure though *whew* but some of yours might not be.

I logged into facebook and checked my messages, a friend's account it seems is hijacked. I got this message: Hey! you're on the news! followed by a VERY strange URL --a whole string of numbers & letters then followed by blogspot.com. I, being stupid for a second, clicked on it, when it was taking more than a second i X'd the browser right away. Running a virus scan right now to be sure.

I just looked on this friend's profile right now and it seems it truly is taken over--on his wall there are posts with the same sort of URLs to click "Hey you must see this video right now!"

I posted something on his profile to alert his friends to contact him and not to click the links.

So, just a reminder to be on the watch for things like this.

And now cell phone's aren't excluded either from viruses, etc--especially phones like the Smartphone!
