Virus asking facebook users that their password has changed due to security concerns is a fake email. It asks you to open the email for the new password and releases a trojan virus that will also steal your passwords related to banking, etc....

DO NOT OPEN IT

Just heard about this on the local news.

Thanks for the heads up. I get lots of e-mails regarding UPS shipping or USPS shipping with a exe file attachment. Avoid them also.

Indeed, yet another (obvious to some, yet not all) phishing scam. Thanks for sharing.


The UPS tracking scam is another good example.
