Facebook “Likejacking” Threat
So…when you click spam links on Facebook they hack your profile and auto-like them without your knowledge. Then they are listed on your newsfeed were other friends can click them and get the auto-like for themselves that keeps up the spreading love like never ending treadmills.
According to readwriteweb:
After clicking through on a link, victims don’t get to see the promised content, but rather a blank page reading “click here to continue.” This page contains the clickjacking worm (Troj/Iframe-ET) embedded via an invisible link. Click anywhere on the page and the message is posted to your profile and News Feed, allowing the worm to further its spread.
For example:
“LOL This girl gets OWNED after a POLICE OFFICER reads her STATUS MESSAGE.”
“This man takes a picture of himself EVERYDAY for 8 YEARS!!”
“The Prom Dress That Got This Girl Suspended From School.”
