Scam Poses as Facebook Group Against 'Monthly Charge'
 
Lots of people being fucked by maleware

It's no secret that playing on people's fears is the best way to manipulate them. So, what's the biggest fear of a social networking addict? Paying for access, of course. And that pecuniary paranoia is just what a new Facebook scam exploits.


According to The Next Web, a group called "WE'RE AGAINST THE 4.99 A MONTH CHARGE FOR FACEBOOK FROM JUNE 30TH 2010" isn't an outlet for angry Facebookers. In fact, it's one big malware scam, which could grow even bigger since the group already has 133,000 members. Contrary to the group's claims, you're not going to have to pay to keep tabs on your friends (at least, not that we've heard). The page contains a blank Wall, except for a link that sends you to a site that downloads 25 malicious items to your hard drive.

Where does it say that ?

I had malware on my computer and I use Firefox and needless to say I had two of my sites hacked through the admin panels using my user and pasword so whether this was to do with the maleware which was on my computer I will never know but its better to be safe than sorry ..I learned the hard way ..nothing is hacker proof
