Someone sent me a note the other day that a funeral service for their late friend was being used to start a new Meta group that claimed to offer live streaming of the service.

But of course, those who clicked the link were sent to fake video streaming websites that try to collect payment information before supposedly letting you watch the service.

A little digging showed that not only are there hundreds of these fake funeral streaming groups, but all of them are tied back to some brainiacs in Bangladesh who naturally exposed their identities and operation by trojaning their own PCs.

What's crazy is how the fake funeral streaming groups on Meta are just one tiny microcosm of the scams these dudes in Bangladesh are doing.

Also, now I feel like showering after spending a few hours back on Meta. Eww.
