Facebook is under attack, a phishing attack that is, and it is the second time in the past few weeks that the social netowrking giant has been under fire. The newest Facebook phishing scam, Junglemix.in, acts the same way as the previous FBStarter assault.

The Junglemix.in phishing attack redirects to a fake Facebook site called fblight.com where Facebook users are shown a fake log in page or assaulted by malware. To avoid falling victim to Junglemix.in DO NOT in any way accept the junglemix.in link if it is sent to you on Facebook.

What is Junglemix.in? A Facebook phishing attack by junglemix.in is underway. Junglemix.in redirects to fblight.com which then sends to you a fake facebook sign in or to a malware page.

Last week LALATE broke to you a Facebook Phishing attack by FB starter (FBstarter.com). That too followed up a Fbaction.net phishing scheme.

In the latest round, people on Facebook are again being sent the simple line junglemix.in. Do not accept nor follow the junglemix.in link. Last week Facebook was quick to block fbaction.net.

No reported statement has been given by Facebook about the latest round which is being highly chatted up on other social networks like Twitter this morning 7 am PST warning facebook users of the problem.
