Facebook scam promises "shocking video," but contains malware

Facebook users are being tricked into clicking a scam post that promises a ‘shocking video’ that will make your jaw drop in amazement, reports Hackread.
The offending post is attempting to lure in victims with the headline “[Shocking video] When you see what happens to this pregnant lady at the beach, your jaw will drop,” but, when clicked, takes users to a phony Facebook page which asks them to share the post before viewing. If you hadn’t yet worked out you’re being scammed, the post then directs you to a number of other fake pages which attempt to steal your personal information.
