Facebook Scam

fake facebook email
Watch out for fake login FACEBOOK emails that want you to change your password or update your account. I received one today and it  looked legit, almost had me fooled. A dead giveaway was when it asked me to download an  executable (.EXE file) to run on my computer. Doing so will infect your computer or phone with the Zeus Trojan which will steal your bank account information.

Included is a picture of the fake email and the associated link.
