Searching for your next job on Facebook could leave you with a nasty malware infection, as cybercriminals have begun using fake advertisements for new positions as a lure to trick job seekers into infecting their PCs with malware.
As reported by The Hacker News, these fake Facebook job ads are used to spread the Windows-based Ov3r_Stealer malware. According to a report (PDF) from Trustwave SpiderLabs, this malware strain can collect a user’s location, hardware info, passwords, cookies, auto-fill data, a list of their browser extensions and antivirus software and even their credit card information.
