The supposedly official messages, some of which purport to be from Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, instruct users to click a link to access a verification code. They are told to copy all of the code and then paste it into their browser&#8217;s console. They are also asked to share the instructions with other users.<\/p>\n<p>However, the messages are certainly not from Facebook or Mark Zuckerberg. The messages are scams designed to trick users into allowing criminals to control the behaviour of their Facebook accounts. Copying and pasting the code as instructed allows the scammers to use the compromised Facebook account for harvesting likes and for spamming. \u00a0<a class=\"norm\" title=\"Facebook May 18 Deactivation Scam\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.malwarebytes.org\/fraud-scam\/2014\/05\/facebook-may-18-deactivation-scam\/\">According to Jovi Umawing<\/a> \u00a0of Malwarebytes, the code can cause the accounts to autolike targeted accounts and posts, autofollow lists, tag other users, and stop account owners from unfollowing targeted accounts. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0355887770822260\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"9162856233\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p> If one of these messages comes your way, do not follow any instructions it contains.
