Lily allen Themed clickjacking attack on facebook

Number one social network is again facing the clickjacking attack, which is the main security problem for Facebook security researchers. Scammers always try to tke advantage of social engineering and scamming tricks. Facebook is trying everything to reduce spamming but scammers always get their way. Users are also very innocent who click on any link without thinking. They just want to see what the link is saying without thinking whether it is possible or not. This is the reason why all the security steps taken by Facebook are not working up to the mark.

According to security researchers from Sophos  lab who spotted the attack, the spam messages spread by the scam’s victims read: “Lily Allen shows her breasts on British television! [LINK] In a broadcast on Channel 4, the singer Lilly Allen shows us her beautiful breasts.”

“That’s probably not the kind of thing that pop star Lily Allen wants spreading around on Facebook on the very same weekend that she’s getting married,” Sophos senior technology consultant Graham Cluley noted.

Clickjacking attack is hard to defend but there are few things which you must try to protect your account. Try not to click on any this kind of links and posts. You can also use Noscript addon on firefox for safe browsing which is best protection against clickjacking attack.
