"Facebook password reset confirmation customer support"

Have you received it too???

I routinely open my spam folder because some messages tend to go there, so when I received an email from an alleged 'Facebook Support' I read it. It had an attachment but I didn't open it (yet). The emails tell recipients that the passwords on their Facebook accounts have been reset, urging them to click on an attachment to obtain new login credentials.

I carefully re-read everything written on the email because I found it quite unbelievable that my password would be reset without my permission. When I have my password reset in my bank login for example, they have to verify carefully if it was actually me their talking with. PW resets are sensitive stuff and cannot easily be done by whoever.

I thought the email was legit - really, I was about to open it, good thing I noticed something was amiss, that was not my email add in the TO: part.

According to anti-virus software maker McAfee Inc. if the attachment is opened, it downloads several types of malicious software, including a program that steals passwords, banking passwords and gather other sensitive information.
