Common Facebook Scams That You Fall For If You Haven't Before

These are some of the common Facebook scams that you might fall for if you haven’t before:

5 dangerous Facebook scams spreading like fire now

5) Viral Videos/ Scandals

The word “Viral” itself has become viral which makes you yearn and see the content inside. It could be anything ranging from cute puppy videos to horrendous torture videos by terrorists. More popular in these viral videos are salacious celebrity scandals which generally contain no video at all- but a link to another phishing website or require to install an update or a plugin. Once you do that, the virus is automatically installed in your system. And you know what happens next..

You will never get adult videos on any social media website, so if you happen to scroll through one on your home page, then it is definitely a Facebook scam.

4) Free Giveaways/Survey Scams

Nothing is free in this world my friend. Especially free travel tickets, and definitely not iPhones, iPads or Mac. The social media are full of such spam offers that sound too good to be true, and coaxes you as if you are the world’s luckiest person.

There are also survey scams that trick you into giving your personal information in exchange of gift vouchers or free trips. Do not fall for these Facebook scams and never forward them to your contacts either, else you would end up spamming your friends too.

3) Facebook Customization

If any link on your home page claims to change the layout, color or give you a special “Dislike Button” give any special functionality, then it is probably another Facebook scam. You can’t just change the official interface of the world’s biggest social media website by clicking a few phishing links.

These scams will either ask you to install their specific Facebook app or ask to fill a desirability form of what changes you want. Once in, they will get full access to your data or through phishing forms spread malware into your system.

If Facebook would some day want to give you customization features, then they make a grand announcement, not any hidden link. So, be alert and avoid yourself from such Facebook scams.

2) Celebrity Friend Requests/Charity

This might not happen as frequently as others but when someone falls for this Facebook scam, it hits him/her very hard. You come by a friend request of a celebrity or from so-called official  page. Then they will ask you to donate some money for the poor or the disaster struck people.

Either they will ask your credentials or directly tell you to donate through online payment services. Never trust such messages to stay safe on Facebook.

1) Who Viewed My Profile?

This is the biggest and most pervasive Facebook scam ever. Facebook has made it pretty clear that there is no way any app can tell who has visited your profile and how many times. Any link or app that claims to do so is a scam.

In these scams, you will have to give in your information and accept their terms and conditions. This scam play with the emotions of the users as most of us want to know if their secret crush or an ex-partner visits them online.

The application does tell who viewed your profile based on an algorithm, but till then you are already been infected by the app and under attack.

So, avoid all these malicious and fraudulent apps and links to be safe on the social media. With this, we end the list of biggest Facebook scams.

SOCIAL ENGINEERING

Hi friends, here I am back with another article. This is just detailed introduction about Social Engineering. Here I will say how it takes place, and Prevention Method.

WHAT IS SOCIAL ENGINEERING?

                Social Engineering refers to psychological manipulation of the people into either performing action or giving out confidential information.

TECHNIQUES:

                Many attacker uses some common techniques to extract the information out. Some are..

1} Pretexting: is to create an invented scenario to engage a targeted victim wherein he would give out information or perform actions that would be unlikely in ordinary circumstances.

2} Diversion Theft: is exercised by Professionals thieves, or Black Hat Hackers, normally against a courier Company or Transport. The aim is to persuade the people responsible for a legitimate delivery that the consignment required elsewhere.

3} Phishing: a common method is used to get the information through fraud, or fake page and stores the confidential information.

4} IVR: also known as phone phishing uses a false interactive voice response (IVR) system to recreate a copy an IVR system.

5} Baiting: It is like a Trojan Horse which attacks the systems through Flash Drives or CD-ROM. When victim opens such affected malicious files, without knowing himself malware installs on his PC. They may be Key Loggers.

6} Quid pro quo: A advance method by which a social engineering occurs, in this attack, attacker pretends to be someone from the IT or different company and makes random calls asking if there is any issue, finally finding someone who needs help, attacker gets them to type commands giving access to the Hacker to launch his Malware.

SOCIAL NETWORKING:

                Many are been social engineered using Social Networks. Attackers normally create a Fake Account with name of celebrities, or a Girl or reputed Organization. Then they target the victim start chatting with the victim, thus extracting out the Information. Such questions Like: What is your Favorite Movie, or Food, Place? What is your Mother or Father or Childhood Name? Also Alternate Emails and Phone Numbers. These questions are very important in recovering your Emails or Social Networking Sites Password in case you forgot them. And attacker will use the same Answer to change the Password of victim.

PREVENTION METHODS:    

1} Don’t click on Links offering free or anything that you haven’t asked.

2} Don’t send sensitive information over the internet.

3} Delete the Emails that ask for Personal Information.

4} Don’t use real details when filling out surveys.

5} Identifying Phishing Emails: Requests for personal information, Fake Links, beware of the URLs that include the @ sign, Also some altered text or Links Like; www.microsoft.comcould appear instead as www.micosoft.com, Message body is an image.

6} Anti Phishing Toolbar: Anti Phishing software consists of programs that identifies the fake content on website or email attachments.

FACEBOOK PHISHING

PHISHING

Phishing is the illegal attempt to acquire sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details (and sometimes, indirectly, money), often for malicious reasons, by masquerading as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication

Phishing is a continual threat that keeps growing to this day. The risk grows even larger in social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Myspace etc. Hackers commonly use these sites to attack persons using these media sites in their workplace, homes, or public in order to take personal and security information that can affect the user and the company (if in a workplace environment). Phishing is used to portray trust in the user since the user may not be able to tell that the site being visited or program being used is not real, and when this occurs is when the hacker has the chance to access the personal information such as passwords, usernames, security codes, and credit card numbers among other things.
