Poor Girls Life is Over all because of this Video

Poor Girls Life is Over all because of this Video - Facebook Scam. Another survey scam is doing rounds on Facebook, titled "Her Life is Over because of this crazy Video". Hey, Facebook Security Team, are you able to do anything about the semi-Finnish scams?



The scam has a few variations, such as:



* Her Life is Over because of this Video

[LINK]

OMG this is embarrassing!

* Her Life is Over all because of this Video

[LINK]

OMG this is embarrassing!

* Poor Girls Life is Over all because of this Video

[LINK]

This is really embarrassing!




As usual, the picture in the post is sexually explicit to catch more attention. The links lead to different .info domains, such as crazynews1.info, crazynews2.info, fatherwalkerlol.info, tvnewsforyou.info and open a typical scam page that looks like any other Facebook page with a YouTube video embedded.



The page is titled "This girl must be Out of her Mind but also a Genious for making This video!", so it is the same scheme as in a previous scam. To add credibility, fake comments are below the "video". The latter is covered with a well-known dialog related to scams:



Age verification

Are you older than 13 years of age?

Click "Jaa" button 2x to confirm and play video.

By clicking jaa you certify that you have at least 13 years and that you do not violate the Terms of Service.



Clicking the Play Video button will open a Facebook sharing dialog in Finnish and clicking the Jaa there will add the same scam message to your Wall.



Your browser will then be redirected to the widget.php page on the same server. The page is now titled "Dad walks on daughter while she is stripping LOL" and the wannabe video is now covered with a typical survey scam dialog:



Please complete a survey

Please fill out one of the following surveys. You will not be allowed to continue until you have completed a survey.



Completing the survey will make a few bucks to the cybercrooks behind the scheme and you will probably sign up to a premium rate SMS service if you are not careful enough.



If you've fallen for the scam, remove the scam post from your News Feed by clicking the X mark on the right.



Never complete surveys or download files to see a video on Facebook! Also, be very cautious about posts that lead to .info domains.
