Do you have a Facebook? I love Facebook. I cannot help myself to check Facebook every day. It is such a great concept. But as a Facebook user, I have to be careful with hackers that target passwords. I just read in the news there are many hackers that flooded on the net with virus-tainted spam that aim Facebook users. These hackers send emails to recipients that their Facebook passwords have been reset. The email contains a convincing power to click a link to obtain new login information. Once you opened the attachment or link, it automatically downloads malicious software in your computer. It included a program that steals passwords. Facebook now warns users about their scam email and advised users to delete the said email. So, be careful with this email. Protect your information and your computer.
