Over 400 million people now use the Facebook website, however its success does come with problems for the social networking giant.
Facebook has become a magnet for cyber criminals trying to cash in on the large user base to steal personal and financial information.
A password stealing virus has been doing the rounds recently, disguised as an email from Facebook alerting users that their Facebook account password needs to be reset. The attachment with the email, if installed, is capable of collecting and user name and password on your computer…including Internet banking and email logins.
If you see an email like this, delete it. The only way to change your Facebook account password or other details is to log into the Facebook.com website directly.
