Profile Stalkers on Facebook? Checkout the new viral scam
Posted: Tue May 24, 2011 5:07 amAnother scam is being spammed out across Facebook, tricking users into helping its spread by fooling them into believing they will discover who is secretly viewing their profile.
Using a cartoon image of what appears to be a chimpanzee looking through binoculars,the messages are being sent from other Facebook users who have already fallen into the trap of clicking on the link and following the scammers' instructions.
Clicking on the link contained inside the message (which I have obscured in the screen grab below) is a big mistake, as it takes you one step further into the criminals' trap.
