claims that the girl had taken her life on Christmas Eve, or that she’d just returned from basketball tryouts when she read the horrifying missive. It was typically accompanied by a photograph of a rather fetching girl in a pink top looking back over her shoulder and smiling, or a headshot of some other pretty girl.
The lure circulated as a Facebook post and as an e-mail, both of which contained a link (which we’ve elided from the example above) to an application claiming to send those who launch it to a site where they could view the heartbreaking message left by the father of the deceased girl. That link led to a Facebook “request for permission” page which asked visitors to provide permission for the following (the link to the app and the name of the app itself were constantly being changed by the scam artists running the con, so with that in mind, in the following example we’ve used “Name of App” in place of the ever-changing moniker):
Includes name, profile picture, gender, networks, user ID, list of friends, and any other information I’ve shared with everyone.Post to my Wall
“Name of App” may post status messages, notes, photos, and videos to my WallAccess my data any time
“Name of App” may access my data when I’m not using the application
If prurient interest prompted the visitor to allow the app to run, the program so unleashed could access that person’s Facebook information and begin posting messages to his Facebook page, and could continue to do so even when the overly curious was no longer trying to see the “heartbreaking” message supposedly left by the deceased’s father. The purpose of such activity was to get even more people to attempt to look at the phantom message via “clickjacking,” using the unsuspecting victim’s Facebook account to post a status update with a link to an “OMG I can’t believe what her dad said!!” page.
The ultimate purpose of all this activity was to take those who’d been tricked into trying to view the message and lead them down a path to a survey screen, which they were told they must complete before being allowed to access the content of the horrifying message. The survey appeared to be the actual goal of the scam, earning money for those who were running it. However, actual harm to the curious should not be ruled out, as information gathered via such surveys can also be put to bad purposes.
