A botnet is now targeting Facebook with an email  message that reads:

Facebook Password Reset Confirmation.

Hey ,

Because of the measures taken to provide safety to our clients, your

password has been changed.

You can find your new password in attached document.

Thanks,

The Facebook Team

Attached is a zip file with an .exe file.  This file is the Bredolab trojan.

If you get this email delete it immediately.
