Research shows that 1 in 5 organizations worldwide are now infected by malware distributed by social media. This is because of the increased use and appreciation of social networks in virtually every sector of our lives. Banks, governments and educational institutions have incorporated the use of social media sites to improve their reach, making sites such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Instagram a fertile ground for cybercriminals.
Some of the most popular social media attacks include the Nigerian Prince, Charity Funds, Blackmailing Scam and Social Hi-Jacking.
