The message includes a &#8216;shocked&#8217; emoticon and implies that the photo in question is one that you may not have wished to have been publicly posted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>However, the \u00a0link does not open a page with your photo on it. Instead, it opens a fraudulent Facebook app page designed to steal your Facebook login details. \u00a0 \u00a0The page \u00a0looks like it is a genuine part of Facebook. But, if you &#8216;login&#8217; as requested, your Facebook email address and password will be sent to online criminals, who can then hijack your Facebook account and use it for their own nefarious purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>Once they \u00a0have \u00a0gained access, the criminals can use your account to launch various spam and scam campaigns in your name. They may send the &#8216;who posted your photo&#8217; message  \u00a0to your Facebook friends via Facebook Messages. Some of your friends, thinking that you sent the message, may click the link and relinquish control of \u00a0their accounts as well.  \u00a0In fact, the message you originally received was likely sent from the account of a friend who has \u00a0been caught by the same scam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>The text and spelling in these scam messages may vary.  \u00a0This phishing campaign is similar to <a title=\"'Here's the Link HeHe' Facebook Phishing Scam Messages\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hoax-slayer.com\/link-hehe-phishing-scam-facebook.shtml\">earlier campaigns<\/a> that consisted of \u00a0messages that asked \u00a0people to click a link to \u00a0save a photo or view a movie clip. Again, the links were designed to trick people into divulging their Facebook login credentials to criminals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>Other Facebook phishing emails may purport to be \u00a0from Facebook admin staff and <a title=\"'Your Account Will Disable' Facebook Phishing Scam\" href=\"http:\/\/hoax-slayer.net\/your-account-will-disable-facebook-phishing-scam\/\">claim that your account is about to be disabled<\/a> due to terms of service violations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<div align=\"center\"><script src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\" async=\"\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- HS Net Bottom AdLinks --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0355887770822260\" data-ad-slot=\"1358951439\" data-ad-format=\"link\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\/\/ <![CDATA[ (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \/\/ ]]&gt;<\/script><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"date\">Last updated: June 6, 2016<br \/>\nFirst published: June 6, 2016<br \/>\nBy Brett M.
