Have you tried to change the colour scheme of your Facebook profile lately? Beware of virus attack as a "colour change" malware is back and has already affected over 10,000 people around the world.
The malware has been fixed by Facebook repeatedly but it has resurfaced again, reports added.
It begins by advertising an app that tells Facebook users they can change the colour theme of their profile.
Download the app and you are directed to a malicious phishing site, Mashable reported.
The danger starts herewith.
The website targets users by stealing their Facebook Access Tokens by asking them to view a colour changer tutorial video.
Temporary access to the tokens allows hackers to connect to the user's Facebook friends.
