hammerforged Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 Someone is hacking Facebook big time. I know of 5 people who have had their accounts hacked today, myself included. If you get a link to a video from me be assurerd I did not send it. DO NO OPEN IT! I am posting this here because I know we have quite a few members that are on Facebook as well.

c_lou Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 I got one from you Ross. I was going to open it but then actually read your message on FB. Thanks for the heads up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWSmith Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 (edited) I read this thread and checked... Steve sent me the message...well the person who sent the Virus that Steve is now trying to remove from his computer. He wants me to tell everyone that it Definitely was not him that sent that junk around!!! What happened was it asks you to download a flash player...and even if you click on NO it still downloads the virus. Steve has anti-virus software on his computer and it bypassed it completely. He's been working on it for over an hour now. He said Dont open the message just delete it without looking at it if it's sent to you or your computers toast. P.S. Thanks for the Warning Ross... It was way,way, way out of character for Steve to send me a message that said: "Hey your _ss was on TV". So I called him and found out about all the trouble he's having right now.

ruttinbuc Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 I got the same messages. Thanks for the warning. Sorry to hear Steve got nailed with this crap. I went through the same thing awhile back and have a hard time trusting a lot of stuff on the computer anymore. Always some brainiac trying to prove how smart they are. Put that brain power to something useful and they might cure some of the worlds ills. :angry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lil hunter Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 its not really a virus, someone just hacked your facebook login info and use your facebook to keep sending out the links... He just needs to change his facebook password. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SourthenILdeerhunter Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 sheesh i havent got one from any1 but then again i have very few from realtree on my facebook Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckee Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 If you've changed your passwords guys, make sure you log out, and then back in using your new password. I've since changed my password there, logged out, and back in using the new password. And it has taken me all bloody morning to get rid of the virus on my computer after trying to view one of the ones Ross sent me ("WWow! Is thhat reaally you in thiss videoo?). That's all it said, and I was expecting to see a good hunting video. It told me I had to download Flash Player, which I so Graciously did..LOL I'm a sucker:drink::nurse: I keep getting them from you too Ross. I hope mine have stopped. I left out the rest of the message(link) for obvious reasons. ........................... Ross sent you a message. Subject: hey "HHey! You are on nnews! ************************** .......................................... Ross sent you a message. Subject: hey "WWow!

buckee Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 Did you(anyone) click on the movie link, and did it instruct you to download flash player? I think it's fooling everyone a bit differently by the sounds of it and only sending the Lude comments to the females. That was my mistake. I got sucked in. I ended up with the "Koobface worm", and the "Cyber Security Virus", along with who knows what. After scanning my computer with "Spyware doctor", "Spybot" and "Registry First Aid", umpteen times, over and over again, and picking up bits and pieces each time, I realized this puppy was regenerating itself somehow, so I did a search on the Net for "Koobface" after noticing my last scan picked up something with that name. I finally (I hope) found a fix, but it took a bit of playing around and following these directions to the T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnf Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 Sorry Buckee, didn't state that quite right. When I read the message I knew it couldn't' be him, but thought "well, maybe he temporarily lost his religion" and clicked. When the computer freaked I figured that it was a virus or something.
