Watch Out for heartEcard and “When did you post your pictures on a home page known as” Facebook Viruses

February 15th, 2009

 

If you get a Facebook wall post that says anything like,

  • “When did you post your pictures on a home page known as singclick”
  • “When did you post your pictures on a home page known as wagfloat”
  • “When did you post your pictures on a home page known as whisperjump”
  • “When did you post your pictures on a home page known as scramblepass”

do not agree to the terms to enter any of the web sites above. The whois listing says: “THE PIC IS A MONKEY – THIS IS JUST A PRANK SITE”

More recently the wall post has been:

  • “hey I reserved a valentines ecard for you at HeartEcard.com”

Do not agree to the terms or click Submit. One of my Facebook friends has been plastering these types of posts all over her Facebook friends’ walls and it is most likely a virus or worm that is doing it.
