Old Likejacking spam spreads again through Facebook today. Likejacking is a malicious technique of tricking users of a website into posting a Facebook status update for a site they did not intentionally mean to "like" - Wikipedia.
What you see above is the kind of Spam post that spreaded among Facebook user's today. Once you click on the tiny url - http://bit.ly/upflDQ it will contact the site http://bestaddever.blogspot.com/ and check for your country code "MY" for Malaysia and "IN" for India.
Based on the country identified it will redirect you to a website. Suppose if you are not from Malaysia and India you will be redirected to "http://bestadd4u.blogspot.com/". Where you will see something like shown below,
Above seen is not a video its just a jpg image hosted in the site "http://i.imgur.com/yEQiH.jpg". The play button in the middle is to trick user's to click. Its an hidden Like button. Its just like any like button, it will start posting the spam message on your wall once clicked.
Then opens up the window "http://telugugames.blogspot.com/" and asks you to complete the surveys.
It will prompt you saying try to complete different survey again and again. The more you complete the more they earn.
The spammers earn commission for every survey that is completed. Their work is to drive traffic to the online survey and make people complete them.
Similar domains spreading this infection are bestadd.blogspot.com & mybestadda.blogspot.com.
