Recently a lot of Facebook scams went viral like you may have seen posts of your friends wall “98% of the people can’t see this video” or “98% of the people can’t watch the video for more than 15 sec“. Below is a typical Facebook scam post.

You friends thinks that you shared the post with them and fall into the same trap of re-sharing the video to all his Facebook friends.
