Re: Facebook-Email Telling Picture on Album 32 dot Com? Scam???If the redirector(s) & phish page are both on the same server I can see why you chose that server. That says a lot about the miscreant behind it. Getting back to OP, yes, your facebook login credentials were the only thing at risk. No driveby downloads etc.., to be concerned over. Edit to add: *If* you had submitted your facebook logn to the phish page & as Name Game pointed out, you use the same password to login into other web based services you should worry about those services also being compromised. |

Yes and all these have been like that..granted not in all case are they the same place..but if you look at this one..and the last three like it..has to be the same group or person...I think your group goes after them when the file is complete..and then hands it over to authorities..like at Computer Cops years back etc and maybe that group even shut down the server sooner..Lot's of hard work done and still goes on I am sure. |

"your facebook login credentials were the only thing at risk." Yes but the login is an email address..and for most people a good one they use all the time...and I would say 90% use the same password for that email addy and their facebook.. |

If I did have a Facebook account this would not be the case for me. Anyhow, users have got to start practicing safe hex and don't be stupid and use the same password for email and Facebook. Never use your email passwords for anything else! And be sure you write them all down and put the list in a safe place or use a Password Manager if you trust them....I've had bad luck with them so I don't use them. |

Haven't seen it on the junk Yahoo account I signed up for FB with. All I get from FB is that so and so added a friend. If I ever posted on FB, it was to a company who decided to run customer service that way. I just read friends' posts and email them. (the friends) |

When i typed it in it sent me to my fb login. . .but i was already logged in so it shouldve taken me straight to my page. Im assuming its a scam to hack fb accounts or its a virus of some sort |

I just received the same Facebook Notification email from one of my FB friends asking: "hey, go to album89 dot com and search for your name then click on the first photo.. I bet you didn't remember that, eh?" NOTICE THE URL: ht tp://www.facebook.com.login.php-profile-signin-ilkr4div.album89.com/index.php This is NOT a facebook url ... FACEBOOK.COM IS JUST PART OF THE SUB-DOMAIN. Notice the end of the URL and you will see the actual domain here that you are logging into with your private info is ALBUM89.COM - Also if you view source on the page you will notice that the images/graphics are being hosted from a 3rd party site: » 3.bp.blogspot.com/-AOgsq ··· 0/i3.pngI did not fall for it but is likely most people will I wonder what the purpose of this hacking attempt is? |

Well I do hate to be conspiratorial, but I just got the "Album 89" message just after posting anti-Monsanto information on the "No On Prop 37" Facebook page, which is funded in part by none other than Monsanto and friends. It may be coincidental but I certainly want to shut down these agri-bullies with their big ideas about "replacing nature." |

i had the same thing don't put in your info. if by chance you did change your password on your facebook and your email. if you don't see the HTTPS:// before the website url then it is not secure like the page it redirects you too at album 89 dot com. |

I received one, as well, it's spam. Whoever you received it from has probably been hacked, just delete it, otherwise if you go to the site, you may be hacked as well. Good luck, hope that helps! |
