A viral Facebook post that says Drake and Rihanna had a “sex [tape] leaked” is nothing more than a scam and shouldn’t be clicked.
The whole post reads: “[18+ VIDEO] Ríhanná & Dráke Sex tap Leáked By Chrís Brówn A Min Agó ... Dráke said i will kill chris brown nów.”
It also includes a photo of Rihanna and Drake.
However, there’s no video and clicking on it will take Facebook users to a website designed to look like Facebook.
After that, the page will ask users to share the post before going further. This ensures that the scam spreads to other users.
“It is this fake Facebook web page that the scammers want you to ‘like’ or share, which will make it popular. Once the page is popular, these scammers can sell it to online marketers or other scammers. They will also make money from the surveys that are completed by gullible Facebook users who were tricked into completing them,” reads a post from security website Online Threat Alerts.
Other variants of the post can carry malware, rogue Facebook apps, or survey scams.
If you’ve “liked” or shared the post, you should delete it and “unlike” it so that others aren’t exposed to the scam.
There’s another Facebook scam that claims to have a video of Chris Brown and Rihanna.
