Everyone knows that Facebook is the world's largest online social network, and increasingly, the destination of choice for messaging friends, sharing photos and videos, and collecting "eyeballs" for business advertising and market research.
Facebook has a huge worldwide user base, an easy-to use Web site, and a community of users linked to their friends. Its members are more likely to trust messages they receive from friends, even if this communication is not legitimate.
According to a February 2010 report from Internet security company NetWitness, Facebook serve s the primary delivery method for an 18-month-long hacker attack in which Facebook users tricked into revealing their password and downloading a rogue program that steals financial data.
HOW THEY WORKS???- A legitimate-looking Facebook email notice asked user to provide information to help the social network update its system
- When the user click "update" button in the e-mail, that person was directed to a bogus Facebook login screen where the user's name was filled in and that person was prompted to provide his or her password
- Once the user supplied the information, an "Update Tool", installed the Zeus "Trojan horse" rogue software program designed to steal financial and personal data.
