The application “Find out who looks at your profile. Formal implementation is a virus that circulates among the majority of social network contacts. BitDefender called to be alert 

The company alerted security solutions on the use by cybercriminals to Facebook events for malicious purposes. 

According to the company, these cybercriminals developed false events that promote an application called “Find out who looks at your profile. Enforcement official.” 

If the user accepts the link of the event, is directed to a false application prompted to copy and paste a code into your browser (something that never ask for legal applications). If you do, you will see how it publishes on its Facebook wall an event promoting the same false application. The event will appear how created by the affected user and all his friends will be invited to the same automatically. 

The problem with this implementation is that many users believe is legitimate and that is why they feel tempted to try it. In doing so, the vicious cycle begins and the virus is spread by all users. 

To avoid this, BitDefender recommends wary of tools that promise to provide such data and advised to seek information on the web application to check the experiences of other users with this application. 

“But if it fell into the trap, apart from eliminating the event in question, it should enter the account settings and verify that nothing strange. From there, always good to discuss the problem with our contacts, to raise awareness and protect us from all “from the web bitelia.com recommended. 

“The common denominator of all these attacks is to promote them through false applications, usually related to issues as” find out who looks at your profile “,” find out who has deleted you on Facebook, “etc.,” says director BitDefender Marketing for Spain and Portugal, Jocelyn Otero Ovalle.
