Security experts are warning Justin Bieber 팬 against joining a 페이스북 group which promises the pop star's mobile phone number but instead redirects them to scam sites.
The group, called OMG!! Justin Biebers Ex GIRLFRIEND just RELEASED his new CELL PHONE NUMBER!! promises to hand over Bieber's phone number once they have shared the link with their friends.
Instead of then being directed to a site with his number on it - 또는 any number, for that matter - 팬 are being sent to survey sites designed to get hold of personal information.
Because the link has been shared, the scam then spreads through the social-networking site virally.
Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant at Sophos said: "I'm afraid that 당신 never will get Justin Bieber's real phone number. The page has been created to redirect your browser to surveys that ask 당신 umpteen 질문 (gathering your personal information for the companies behind the survey and earning the scammers some affiliate cash)."
"If 당신 did make the mistake of passing the link onto your friends, 당신 should clean-up your newsfeed and 프로필 to remove references to the link," he continued.
