Hi, I keep getting a message to my mobile: “Christina Morrow shared an album with you https:facebook-photos-au.su/Christinamorrow on Facebook photos”. This message gets sent out from my mobile phones internationally. So far, I have been charged for international sms for approximately AUD$300.00. I am very frustrated as I didn’t send any message. I need this to stop and also seek reimbursement for the charges. We have been getting calls from other people to abuse us because of the message. Can you please assist?
I keep getting a message: “Christina Morrow shared an album with you”. Is it real?

Typically, each sms costs around $0.05 for the victim and is sent every 2 hours. The phone number always changes, so blocking it does not help while trying to deal with this issue. The URL is also altered to prevent useless redirects to websites which were closed due to illegal activities.
Unfortunately, neither your telephone provider nor Facebook is responsible for these messages. While it has nothing to do with malware on your phone, this scam can be stopped only if scammers get caught. You can report Christina Morrow scam to the ACCC Scamwatch site: https://www.scamwatch.gov.au/report-a-scam.
