Facebook 'Dislike' Scam Warning

It has been reported by the BBC that Facebook users are being targeted in a scam where they are given the option of installing a 'dislike' button.

Once installed, the application gives the scammers access to your profile and the ability to post messages through your account.

You are then encourages to complete an online survey which the scammers get paid for you completing.

We encourage you to be extra vigilant when installing apps. Check if you need it and see if your friends have had any problems before allowing any application permission to access your details.
