Dad Catches Daugther on Webcam' Scam Is Back on Facebook

Security researchers warn that scams about a dad catching his daughter stripping on webcam are again circulating on Facebook in an attempt to trick users into completing rogue surveys.

The spam messages posted from already compromised accounts read: "OMG she is so busted!! Dad catches Daughter on Webcam! [link]" The link takes users to a page showing a picture of a naked girl with a big "See the Video Click Here" button. Clicking the button prompts a permissions request dialog from a rogue app called "Dad Caught Her Strippin," which wants access to post on people's walls.

Installing this application is a very bad idea as it will start sending spam to all people in the victim's friends list. Of course, there is no video. After the installation prompt, users are taken to a page asking them to complete a survey as a human verification procedure.

Doing so will not only earn the scammers money, bu could end up costing the user some, because these surveys try to deceptively sign people up for premium mobile services.
