How To Remove Facebook Virus And Phishing Scam Application

There is a new virus, also known as rough application spreading like wild fire on Facebook. It goes by the title “Ahocking video of a teacher that nearly killed a boy”. Clicking on the link will not direct you to the video, instead, you’ll be bombarded with endless surveys to complete. If you’re a victim of Facebook virus, Sophos has a step by step tutorial on how to remove this virus from your facebook account.

The rough application might have collected some of your personal information, such as Facebook password, email or personal information. With the password and free access to your account, it will be a matter of time before the application launches itself automatically and install many other unwanted application spamming your friends.

The best security is your own awareness. Never click on suspicious links and do not give out information to too good to be true contests. If possible, use Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome for better phishing protection.
