WARNING: New scam circulating involving Malaysian Airlines flight MH370

Hackers and spammers are very smart and take advantage of every opportunity. Thus, the disappearance of Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 did not go unnoticed and various scams began to appear on Facebook.

The scam claims that the plane has been found and if you click on it, you are taken to an unrelated page with Facebook, which tries to copy it in appearance, fortunately without much success. If you try to watch the fake video, a message will appear to share it first before watching it. In case you are not logged in to Facebook, you will be shown the login window, but this will not happen to almost anyone, because you were logged in to Facebook when you were taken to the malicious page.

If you click on such a malware post, you may lose your Facebook passwords and they may post various things with your account, depending on the code of the malicious page.

Be very wary of such fake news and always pay attention to the address on the page so you can understand if you are on Facebook or on another one that is trying to imitate Facebook.

If you have already clicked on it, delete the posts, change your Facebook passwords and check your computer for malware.

A very good tool to check your computer is Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.
