Your facebook account has been blocked due to suspicious activity

A bogus email claims facebook users that, “Your account has been blocked due to suspicious activity”, and tricks with them to click on malicious link to verify their facebook account.

Subject:- Account suspicious activity

Email Body:- 

Hi {victims-name},

Your account has been blocked due to suspicious activity.

To verify account, please follow this link:

http://www.facebook.com/confirmemail.php?e={victims-email}&c=6655953

You may be asked to enter this confirmation code: 6655953

The Facebook Team

The above email is personalized email, that can targets to any specific persons.

Don’t be surprised to see the facebook link, Cybercriminals hide their actual malicious URL  under facebook fake URL, This is very simple way to trick with peoples, lets see how it works.

Clicking on this link www.yahoo.com redirects to my home page, www.yahoo.com, You can see actual URL by hovering your mouse pointer on the link.

So when any one clicks on the link, it redirects to fake facebook login page or facebook phishing page, and asks you to your login information.
