Hey I Just Made A Photoshop of You …Facebook Virus Spreading

Posted by on Tuesday, 29 March, 2011

Looks like another one of those Facebook Scam is currently under way. Users are posting messages saying that “hey, i just made a photoshop of you, check it out :P [redirected link]“.

The above Facebook scam is more like a virus because it installs an app in your Facebook profile and then redirects you to a page where you have to fill out a survey which will make money for the scammer.Right now the scam is spreading very quickly across Facebook, so stay away from clicking on the link.

This message is also spreading rapidly through Facebook Chat so don’t click on such messages even when you receive them through your friends in Facebook chat.

If you have clicked on the link, you will have to remove an application from your profile called soothio.co.cc or ratenry.info from your Profile to stop it from further affecting you and your friends.
