Sophos is warning of a new phishing scam that targets Facebook users with the promise of a video that will persuade viewers never to drink Coca Cola again.
"Many users have been suckered into trying to watch the video, which claimed nine in 10 viewers would not consume the popular soft drink ever again after viewing the clip, according to Sophos," writes IT PRO's Tom Brewster.
"The scam differs from the clickjacking techniques that have been working their way around Facebook recently, instead telling users they need to recommend the link to seven other people before they can watch the video," Brewster writes. "However, there is an option for users to skip the sharing process. People who click on this link will be taken to a survey asking for various pieces of personal information."
