Phishing link from facebook

hXXp://pygy.co/i5X

Assholes hacked my mother. Least I can do is post their link here.

(Source: Facebook Messenger)

Interesting… The link seems to redirect to hxxps://463918690.storage.googleapis.com/463918690.html

And it shows an infinite loop loading circle.

@MrIncognito#115063 Still works on my moms iphone (I placed fake details)

thats weird

EDIT: use google dev tools to place the site into phone mode (top left of window) and it goes through, it seems they are actually kinda smart and it only works on mobile

Hmm… a link the website calls to is adfaceapp.fun. Looking into it, “FaceApp” seems to be a known malware app seen here on forbes “shorturl.at/hmIU9” i assume it’s the same people. - “Kaspersky has identified a fake application that is designed to trick users into thinking it is a certified version of FaceApp,” Igor Golovin, a security researcher at Kaspersky, warned, "but goes on to infect devices with an adware module called MobiDash.“Once the application is downloaded from unofficial sources and installed,” Golovin continues "it simulates a failure and is subsequently removed. After that, a malicious module in the application rests discreetly on the user’s device, displaying adverts. Because the threat actors behind MobiDash often hide their malware behind the illusion of popular applications, and they don’t come much more so than the FaceApp Challenge right now, Golovin warned that “the activities of the fake version of FaceApp could intensify, especially if we are talking about hundreds of targets in just a few days.”

Researchers at ESET have also uncovered an active FaceApp Challenge scam, "the scammers trick their victims into clicking through countless offers for installing other paid apps and subscriptions, ads, surveys and so on." The victim will also receive requests from other websites to allow the display of notifications which, in turn, lead to more fraudulent offers.

This reminds me of the new frenzy going on called "Gradient - You look like"
