45,000 Facebook Passwords Leaked!

According to a warning released from the security firm Seculert, a malware called Ramnit has stolen around 45,000 Facebook passwords. Ramnit is out on a rampage and has created havoc by stealing login credentials of the Facebook users, based out of UK or France. According to the official blog post of Seculert, “The attackers behind Ramnit are using the stolen credentials to log-in to victims' Facebook accounts and to transmit malicious links to their friends, thereby magnifying the malware's spread even further. In addition, cybercriminals are taking advantage of the fact that users tend to use the same password in various Web-based services (Facebook, Gmail, Corporate SSL VPN, Outlook Web Access etc) to gain remote access to corporate networks.”
