“Look you were filmed all naked!” read the subject header on one iteration of the virus-spreading message, which is being sent automatically from infected accounts to the “friend” list for that account. Clicking the link usually takes users to a page that looks like YouTube, and a pop-up message advises the user to download a Flash plug-in. The download contains the virus, which replicates by contacting everyone on the victim’s Facebook friend list and advancing the hoax.
This is a good social engineered attack, they seem to have you download a virus into your system. I Keep talking about how you need to be careful with emails. I also suggest that you do a complete Virus scan if you think you’ve been hit with this. There is only one way to prevent yourself from getting this little facebook virus and that is not to click it. Some other things to consider if you found out this was a virus is to contact the person who sent this to them so they to could do a virus scan on their system.
It is always going to be something to be hard, because these people are using social engineering. It seems they are trying to prove a point, even Macintoshes can be vulneble to this attack. If you get anything through you email from people saying they seen you naked or got pictures of your butt, I’d suggest, not clicking those links.
According to Time Inc. Editor in Chief John Huey is planning on Laying off over 600 jobs:
Time Inc., the world’s largest magazine publisher, plans to cut 6 percent of its work force — more than 600 positions — and will revamp the organization in a way that could radically alter the culture at the company.
With the way the economy is, we have more and more people who are having trouble with Layoffs. I got a list of companies right now who is laying people off. If you want to check it out just CLICK HERE.
Now let’s talk about the bigger picture, people are worried and want to get through this with out getting hit hard. So what is true hardship, that comes when you least expect it and want it. I’ve come to the conclusion that it will happen in the best of times. You see most people don’t know what hardship is until it hits them in the square on the head.
Having seen this coming a mile a way, I thought I would come up with ways to be prepared and I’ve done a lot of hard work to be prepared, you two could be prepared. If your interested just click this link and check out all my article on getting prepared. If that doesn’t help you just go out and use google to the fullest. You see if your not ready for the end how can you be ready for the beginning. You will sooner or later be dealt a deck of cards and not know where to go next.
I am not trying to say everyone will loose there jobs but that doesn’t mean your safe where you are. You must strive to be better than are RIGHT now!! For if you don’t you will never have the chance to survice this Recession. I am so sure we are heading into the mouth of t he tiger right now, there is no turning back. Are you prepared?
