If you are a regular Facebook user then you might have noticed a new type of spam which comes through Facebook chat , if you are online in Facebook Chat . Even some of my friends got affected by this spam .
This Facebook Chat spam may come to you in various ways :
- Hey claim your @ fb email address b4 its 2 late! bit.ly/fA05Dk
- OMG! claim your facebook email address now b4 its too LATE! goo.gl/bZO4W
- WTF: This AMERICAN guy should be STONED to DEATH for doing this to his GIRLFRIEND: bit.ly/hpKpxi
Prevention of Facebook Chat spam :
Facebook chat spam is due to your negligence of giving access to your facebook chat to unknown apps ,who utilizes the facebook chat access to send spams to your friends .
So, whenever you find an app asking you for Facebook Chat access, think twice before allowing the app to have the access , as your little mistake can cause havoc in your friend circle as people nowadays sometimes send phishing links too . And if you think that a particular app is new and you haven’t heard of it before then just don’t allow access to your Facebook Chat and stay safe .
