Beware of dangerous files with names ending as tiff-fb.com, jpg-fb.com, gif-facebook.com, pic-facebook.com, bmp-fb.com, jpg-facebook.com, bmp-facebook.com, etc.

Today we noticed that many email accounts got brutally hacked. They thus began sending various unsolicited spam emails with just one link inside. Clicking this link is very dangerous. This automatically downloads a file onto your computer, and if you open it your machine will begin sending the same spam emails with the malicious attachment. This virus is a form of phishing that steals a lot of private information from your various online accounts, including bank accounts, social networks, etc.

The very link in the spam email doesn't looks as malicious. In fact, we've received such email with the link that has the word sakura in it and some other stuff, with .php at the end. Clicking such link may be the result of file downloads with the following names:

  • IamNicePIC-fb.com
  • YouFunnyBMP-facebook.com
  • MeNakedGIF-facebook.com
  • YouSexyPNG-facebook.com
  • IamSexyFIFF-facebook.com
  • YouFunnyJPG-facebook.com
  • IamNakedPIC-facebook.com
  • MeFunnyPNG-fb.com
  • YouNicePIC-facebook.com
  • YouSexyPIC-fb.com
  • MeLolPIC-fb.com
  • MeWhoreGIF-fb.com
  • IamFunnyGIF-facebook.com
  • IamFunnyJPEG-facebook.com
  • MeNakedTIFF-facebook.com
  • YouNakedPNG-fb.com
  • YouBitchPNG-fb.com
  • YouFunnyGIF-facebook.com
  • MeBitchJPG-facebook.com
  • IamNicePIC-facebook.com
  • MeNiceBMP-facebook.com
  • YouNiceJPG-fb.com
  • YouNiceJPEG-facebook.com
  • MeWhorePNG-facebook.com
  • MeWhorePIC-facebook.com
  • IamNiceBMP-fb.com
  • MeNakedJPG-fb.com
  • MeNakedTIFF-facebook.com
  • MeLolGIF-facebook.com
  • YouBitchBMP-facebook.com

There are many other similar variations. If these emails are on computer, please never open such attachments with these dangerous files. These are not pictures! These are viruses. If you execute them your machine will begin sending massive spam as well, with similar enclosures. If you system became infected like described above, please report this problem to your email company and scan your system with reliable security application.
