Spammy McSpamster is bacckkkkk!! This time on #Facebook!!

 



I've had a few posts on my wall with this video over the last few days - so I'm assuming this is a trend on Facebook. Not sure how they are hacking in, but if this video is posted on your wall DO NOT CLICK!! Facebook removes it after about an hour or so - but this thing must be pretty malicious if so many of my friends have gotten it. 


 



eeeppppp!!! Lo siento mucho Andrew!! You've been hacked! 


 


*UPDATE: ANOTHER ONE WAS JUST POSTED!! BAHHHH!!


 



Spammers ... no me freaking gusta!! BAHHHHHHHHHHH




 


*UPDATE (by Torsten): The disease is spreading


Obviously Jen's not the only one getting those video 'recommendations'. I also got two of them (already deleted them) and look what I just found in my timeline:



According to that article it's not really a video. Instead it's a link to a Facebook app. I have to give the creators of this spam some credit. How did they manage to make it look like a video? Does anybody know?


I don't know to which app it redirects you, but if someone's brave enough to try it out, drop us a comment!
