If you have good internet security viruses are fun things to sneer at.

Strange how so many people have no idea what a sandbox is.

Nope i don't lol. Yeah i do have software to protect my computer. I know there is alot out there, where you least exspect it!. But your missing the point!. If people are told what to avoid. Isn't it common sense to avoid it!.

It's the "virus" that is a hoax.

Most of these lead to scam surveys.

Watch Sopho's video on the scam

 

 

BUT... Beware! There is real malware to be had on Facebook. A variant of the infamous Koobface worm is currently doing the rounds.
