I’m sharing some information here wondering if anyone can identify the criminal affiliate program at the root of this scam service.
The scam begins with what seems to be an automated bot-response posted on Facebook. One of the outstanding questions — can anyone identify a bot that is making these spammy posts? These are a few examples from many thousands observed over the past week.
We’ll just do one walk through here, but each of these functions in the same way. The spam post, which often will be added as a comment to a publicly shared post that mentions a movie, links to a Facebook page. Let’s walk through the Ogbani Wanyu post first.
Recently popular movies have Facebook pages created that claim to offer the ability to watch full movies and share a shortened URL, usually bit.ly links, but we’ve also seen Goo.gl links.
