I am sure that you have probably heard by now that there is a Facebook scam going around that is spreading like crazy.

I have been doing a bit of research on this and here are the results

Title:

"BREAKING NEWS - Leaked Video of Casey Anthony CONFESSING to Lawyer." 


Steps taken by many Facebook users:

1.If you click on the Facebook link, you will be directed to enter your age or to verify that you are over 13.

2. Once you verify your age, you must click a button labeled, “Jaa”, (Finnish for Share) I have also seen this link in other scams. I can only assume that this is the meaning of the word used.

3. If you click that button you grant permission for a malware to spam your whole Facebook network.

4. Once clicked I have read that you are directed to a youtube look alike site. This is not youtube but an online survey scam that builds revenue for those who scammed you to begin with.

People, don't click on this link. I have news for you, there is no confession by Casey Anthony and that is a fact. So many people have fallen for this already and it is time to educate yourself. The fact that so many people follow this through is a testament to the carelessness of acting before you think.
