MANILA - A cyber security non-profit firm on Monday warned the public against malicious holiday greetings on social media.

Once opened, the holiday greetings would redirect the user to a website asking for their data, and will then send a similar message to the victim's contacts, according to the Cyber Security Philippines - Computer Emergency Response Team.

It warned Filipinos against the following websites:

  • http://wish-you.co
  • http://wish4u.co
  • https://my-msg.co
  • http://look-me.co
  • http://surprise4u.me
  • http://hookgist.com
  • http://see-magic.co
  • http://mera-style.com
  • http://whatsapp-style.co
  • http://see-magic.co
  • http://my-love.co

If victimized, the group urged users to immediately change their passwords for bank and social media accounts, reset their browsers, update their anti-malware, and scan their devices.
