My husband, unfortunately, fell for this and clicked the link. He complained about it not working, then I saw an email from FB notifying him of unusual activity from a different state and using a different make of phone! That paid off, and I quickly changed his login info, made sure he was set up for two factor authentication (my bad not done before) but it was not before friends got sent the link. It all happened so fast. Sent a FB post out to friends right away. Hope it stopped anyone from clicking through. Thanks for this review Tom's Guide, and for mentioning the QR code scam. I learned a new one with that scam also.
