facebook chat virus or not? - MissM - 03-12-2014 02:24 AM
i was on facebook and then i got a chat pop up saying "hey, i got a 155 on this, what about you?" and then it had a link. i did not click it.
what is it? is it a virus? should i change my password or is it the other person who has been hacked?

its not a virus- HOWEVER it is spam. spam from facebook, to entice people into downloading their game apps. advertisement, that's all that is

Technically its not a virus, its just a spambot (a program with a facebook account that shoots spam out to everyone it can find).
Just ignore it. If you click the link or even try to talk to it at all, you are signaling to it that you're an active account and it will keep trying to harass you.
