Videos that feature celebrities are never real on Facebook

People who don't like Soulja Boy can always fall for the scam that advertises an indecent video featuring Rihanna.

Facecrooks informs that three variants of this hoax are circulating on Facebook, each offering unseen footage that stars the famous singer.

“SICK - I just hate RIHANNA after watching this video” or “You will lose all respect RIHANNA after watching this video!” are some of the alerts that join this fake post.

After they're duped into sharing the scam, the social network's customers are promised a free Walmart giftcard, Best Buy giftcards, iPhones and iPads.

To get in the possession of these fabulous prizes, users are urged to complete a simple survey at the end of which the crooks will fill their pockets with some cash. Survey sites will pay the cybercriminals for redirecting internauts to their page but no one actually ever wins anything.
