Here’s a picture of what the FAKE Dislike Button installation for Facebook looks like. It’s currently making it’s way virally through Facebook, usually with an update from one of your friends saying something like, “I just got the Dislike button, so now I can dislike all of your dumb posts lol!!”
But while your friend may have fallen for this, you don’t have to. If you do install it, you’ll be sending out a similar message to all of your friends and that’s how this Fake Dislike button is spreading so fast.
If you’ve already installed this application, don’t panic. Just go and disable the unwanted application. The way to do that is to go to your “account” button in your Facebook home screen and check the option for “application settings.” Then find the offending application and disable it. While you’re in there, look around any other potential offending applications that you might have opted into from some sort of ‘trickery’ or that you don’t really remember getting or understand the applications purpose.
Then run a virus scan on your computer. Just to be safe.
