Scammers target Facebook users with PlayStation 4 offers In the lead up to this festive period, Kaspersky Lab has seen scammers trying to interest Facebook users with pages on PlayStation 4 offers, and on new Apple iPhones and iPads. There were even pages about an iPhone 8, which doesn't exist. Despite the unofficial-looking posts, many are falling for them and lending credence to the scam campaigns, according to Kaspersky. One supposed Christmas competition offering PlayStation 4 consoles had received over 776 shares. Scammers use numerous techniques to get people to give away their Facebook logins. Clicking on an email link entitled 'Facebook Christmas Specials', for example, could open a fake Facebook portal in which users are required to enter their login details," warned Kaspersky. As the interface appears identical to the real social media platform, users don't realise what's happening. Once the victims have entered their details, the hacker has their passwords. As most people tend to use the same password for services such as eBay, Amazon and webmail, this can trigger a dangerous chain reaction. Kaspersky said that social media users should never click links that don't come from trusted parties. Even if a link has been posted from a friend they should still be wary, as that friend may have been hacked.
