WARNING: Don't Click 'My 1st St@tus' On Facebook

Don't click on anything that includes the words "My 1st St@tus" because it leads to a spamware campaign.

Don’t click on any wall posts nor newsfeed items including the phrase “My 1st St@tus” unless you want to waste time filling out a survey while all your friends get spammed. You get nothing in return for your effort, while the spammer earns a commission if you complete the questionnaie.


This particular spamware, first pointed out by our friends at Sophos, looks like it has multiple origins, with names like Info, Pro, Profile App and My First Post.
