Someone always has to try and spoil the fun when people get really passionate about something. MSNBC has the latest on a new Facebook scam that tries to get all of your personal information with the promise of some tickets to the Breaking Dawn premiere.
Detected by researchers from the security firm Trend Micro, this new scam promises free tickets to see “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 2.”
Sounds great, right? Who wouldn’t want free tickets to a wildly anticipated movie?
There are two catches to this otherwise great offer. The first, of course, is that “Breaking Dawn, Part 2″ isn’t scheduled to hit big screens until Nov. 12, 2012, well after the Nov. 18, 2011 release of “Part 1.”
If that doesn’t raise a red flag, and you find yourself driven uncontrollably — like, say a vampire— to score these free movie tickets and see how the passionate relationship between Bella, Edward and Jacob ends — well, you’re out of luck.
Like past movie ticket scams that have preyed on Harry Potter fans, following this scam's directions will redirect victims to a malicious survey.
