Clickjacking is the process in which Facebook users see an enticing, eye-catching, too-good to be true link posted on someone’s profile asking that you copy and paste it to your web browser or click on it to view. Once the user follows the process, their Facebook wall is populated with the same link which spreads it to all of their Friends luring them to click on the same link thereafter giving the hackers the easy way to gain access to a user’s Facebook account.
Remember the video links that after bin Laden’s death spread like wildfire by purporting to offer users a glimpse at video or photos of bin Laden’s death? Well, that was clickjacking.
