Notice the 'From' email address. It is not a Facebook email. When I moused over the button links that say 'Got to Facebook' and 'Check Notifications', the actual destination link is tdginc.com/boats.html. Not a good sign! And when I viewed the email headers I saw this:
Return-Path: susan_kenney@a132.radicenter.eu
So that is where replies will likely go. But the scammer isn't after replies. They want you to click on those links. DON'T! I know, all the Facebook users moving too fast who do not want to miss a single thing will click on those buttons, but I'm here to tell you - do not do it!
Log into Facebook yourself - from a new browser window where you type in the facebook url yourself and see from there what you may have missed. The below email is a total scam.
This email pretty much looks like the one above except this Subject line is "Confirm Your Account on Facebook". It has a long complicated url to click on that looks like it is from Facebook so unsuspecting people will click on it, but the actual destination is: http://www.coondawgscom/live/docs/work/space/
ReplyDeleteAnd there is a button in the email too that say "Last day: Complete Signup" just to try and catch those people who think oh! I must click now before it is too late! But it will only be too late when you DO click on it. DO NOT DO IT!
