Another Facebook scam is making the rounds; this one is providing users with a trojan when they fall victim to the scam, it promises the user a 'naked video' of their friends.

The scam was discovered by Bitdefender and seems that most of the downloads are by people that are supposedly in the video itself. The scheme is simple; you get directed to a "Youtube" video and then get a prompt that Adobe Flashplayer has failed and to please update to the latest version. This is actually a Trojan which immediately begins to scan and then ultimately steal your pictures.



Hot4Security says to increase the infection rate, the malware has multiple installation possibilities. Besides the automated and quick drop on the computer or mobile device, it also multiplies itself when users click the fake Adobe Flash Player update.



To make the scam more credible, cyber-criminals faked the number of views of the adult video. Over 2 million users have allegedly clicked on the infected “YouTube” link. To add another touch of realism, the malware creators also added a message that the video is “age-restricted” based on “Community Guidelines.”

Scammers also fake the date they uploaded the malicious video by making it current. Bogus Flash Player installers have been infecting users on Facebook and Twitter for a couple of years.
