Without a doubt, Facebook is the most popular social networking site today among users and cyber criminals alike. Every now and then, Trend Micro discovers threats that ride on the said social networking site. For instance, just last week, Rik Ferguson, security analyst, reported a new variant of Koobface propagating via Facebook.

Earlier today, Trend Micro is alerted of another Facebook attack involving a dancing girl’s video and a bogus Facebook website. Spammed messages supposedly from Facebook entice users to click on the link to view the said video. The email seems legitimate and utilizes ‘appealing’ subjects like Facebook Message: Girls Dancing on facebook Video (Last rated by Fannie Cano), FaceBook message: Dancing girl oriental dance … (Last rated by Abdul Kay), and FaceBook message: Hot Girl Dancing At Striptease Dance Party to name a few.
