Facebook Scam/Virus

[Scotty]

As we were talking about scams in another thread, I thought this one was worthy of a mention .... I know most people tend to just delete anything that says you have asked for a password reset (unless you have actually requested one) but seems this one has caught out a fair few folk.

I received two different variations of this email yesterday and deleted it but with Facebook being so popular I am sure many will be caught !

I believe the file is windows only but if you get the email I would delete it on any platform !
