The scary thing is that it tells you that Facebook has a new log in system to make Facebook a safer place. All you need to do is update your Facebook account. Don't click on any of the links in this email.

Video Instructions for Virus

With a little care you can keep from getting taken by phishing scams and virus'. Knowing what to look for and knowing what not to do with unsolicited emails will help keep you safe. Never click directly on the link in the email when they ask for personal information. Go the the company's website directly and enter your information from there instead. When in doubt, email the company to ask if the email is legitimate.
