Tech Support > Facebook Help > Beware Of Fake Facebook Dislike Button

As Facebook got famous lots of new facebook scams started to spread among Facebook user accounts. Recently there was this Osama Binladen virus. As a scam it did its part perfectly! And now a new Facebook scam “fake facebook dislike button” is roaming over this network. If we analyze these facebook scams they all aim user’s curiosity. For a long period of time Facebook users have been requesting for a “dislike” button. But Facebook sources say that Facebook is still considering this feature.

Hackers have found this as an easy way to use their bogus tactics. They have created a fake facebook dislike button. If you see wall posts such as “I just got the Dislike button, so now I can dislike all of your dumb posts lol!!” or any other suspicious posts followed by a link. If you click that link it leads us to a page which looks like the pages which requests for permission to access the application. If we click allow it automatically leads us to a complete a survey. Finally it dubs itself as a Firefox add-on with the name “Facebook dislike button”. But this add-on doesn’t seem to make any viral threats which are a relief.

Then where do these fake updates come from? Trusted sources say that the links automatically spread to our friends while we click it. It updates your friend’s status without their knowledge.

This fake Facebook dislike button scam is also considered to be a JavaScript exploit. When you click on the link “Enable Dislike Button” it leads you to a page which asks you to copy a link and paste it in your browser. Well, you won’t have an idea what a simplest code of JavaScript can do!

Don’t click on suspicious links in Facebook. Confirm whether the link is secure. Facebook will officially inform Facebook users if they have launched a “Facebook dislike button”. Think twice before giving permission for Facebook applications. We should be aware about what is happening around us. Keep yourself updated about Facebook scams. I you are already a victim of “fake Facebook dislike button” just change your Facebook password. Change your privacy settings to be more secure and remove the scam posts in your profile.
