Good morning fellow Nairalanders

Beware of the deceptive and fraudulent messages below that are spreading on the internet, Facebook as a case study, like wildfire. Example

I am very excited Eebrahym I lost 16 pounds by trying these drops I saw on CNN. Type-in website without spaces--->www .oDrops. C0M

The rate at which the message spread on Facebook is alarming. The worst part of it is that it is being posted on your walls, comments, timeline or inbox by your friends without his/her knowledge.


The deceptive and fraudulent messages, which claim that the recipients can lose weight or shed pounds by purchasing Dr. Oz weight loss drops at the website: "www.thatlost .com, www .oDrops. C0M...." were created and sent by cyber-criminals to trick potential victims into visiting and purchasing bogus products from the fraudulent website.

The fraudulent website will also steal personal and credit card information, which the cyber-criminals who created the website, will use to rip off their victims.
